Default Few questions about a 383 build

Looking into a higher comp 383 build. Will likely use the 2.5 5.3 heads, and a decent size cam. I've heard a Ls6 intake won't flow enough, but what about a ls6 intake with a 90 snout? Also, what would need done for fuel? ( would just an injector swap deliver enough or would the pump need swapped)

It will see nitrous, but the nitrous fuel will come from a seperate stand alone cell with seperate pump

The ls6 intake plenum and runners aren't big enough. Trying to force more air into an already full plenum won't help. It might help some, but not enough.

I suggest a 255 pump with a racetronics hot wire kit and some 42lb injectors.
