FYI,
I do not believe you will have any problem with a 2-bolt main block until you start reving more then 6000 RPM. My own experience with my 355 2-bolt main, firebird, 6-speed, superram E-Tec 200 heads, ZZ-409 cam is 80,000 trouble free miles, 6000 RPM shift points, 12.0's at 113 MPH and 20 plus miles per gallon on the highway. (Stock crank, rods, and block)

When you pull your stock TPI, make sure you hold onto the fuel rail. Most of the SRs on eBay were for F-Body cars. The fuel lines are not routed the same as Vettes. If you currently have a cold start injector, you'll need to cap off the fitting on the rear of the drivers side fuel rail. The SR doesn't use the 9th injector.

The SR runners and intake manifold will not have a provision for the 9th. So there's nothing to cap or plug. Just the fuel rail. If you get an SR that includes the fuel rail, it will probably have the fuel rail cap you need. Just swap it to yours.
