you will probably want to go ahead and upgrade the injectors higher to a 60# motron and install the a newfuel pump...

i'm going with the Racetronix plug and play kit from thunderracing, and motron 60# injectors from LS1speed

with your headers and mids you shouldn't have a problem, do you still have the stock pipes after those aftermarket ones you installed? if so there will be no problem mounting to that

I bought the racetronix kit, and overall very happy with it. Installation took a few hours... had to drop the tank, which was full of gas. Doing it in the dark didn't help.
