Thats a very broad range. You will need to be more specific to get any replies. My first recommendation (if your a new owner) is to purchase the FSM manual for it, it has a lot of information. If you are having a specific problem(s), then list that, this way people here can help you out better
Buy Charles Probst's book, "How to understand, service and Modify Corvette Fuel Injection". That will cover most of your questions.I also like Ben Watson's "How to Tune and Modify Chevrloet Fuel Injection" and Jason Scott's "How to Tune and Modify Chevrolet TPI Engines".

Okay, since you got my drunk, smart-*** answer last night, here's what I know. It's a great engine with killer low end power. But due to a crappy intake design, it runs out of steam much too early. This intake also makes top-end work a PITA. But underneath that, it's just another small block Chevy. If you get one from an 86 1/2 or newer Corvette, you have a roller cam engine which also has the benefit of a cam retainer, something the SBC should have always had and was one of the few flaws in an otherwise great design. They had no choice at that point, it became a neccessity with the roller. The best factory heads came along in '88 as well as the highest HP rating which continued through '91 in the Vettes.
