Default Injector/fuel pump recommendations

I am working on a boosted project over the winter for my 99 Corvette. Car has 45k miles on it and is in perfect running condition.

Here is the plan so far:

Cerra Front mount Single turbo kit with a 62-1 and required accessories
Comp 918s and retainers
02+ Z06 cam
LS6 intake
LS2 HD timing chain
LS7 clutch

My intentions are low boost 6 to 8 lbs, shooting for 450whp maybe a little more. I just want reliable fun horsepower, not going to go crazy or anything.

I am going to run E85, and wanted to know what injectors and fuel pump to run.

Any suggestions?
