I know that they will work with the Fast Burn heads, but I'm not so sure about the older style heads.

You will need to use a low pressure pump.

All you need is a low pressure bypass style regulator. Not sure if the stock return line can handle that much fuel though.

It can. I ran high flow lt1 pump with an aeromotive bypass and its fine. Brakes: pick a cam with decent vacuum numbers or vacuum canister, or vacuum pump. I run a comp cams xe274h with zero vacuum problems. LT1 headers work, im running pacesetter long tubes. Most likely you will have to cut the cowl, i would even if i didnt have to. It makes working on the distributor much easier.
