Default Blower problems, Please Help!

Will you run into alot of problems by running a vortec 8psi blower on a stock 1988 mustang GT 302HO motor. The motor does have a cam but besides that there is no motor work done, also I have a 3:73 rear end. Will this cause many problems, and what can I do to make the blower more effiecent. I am running into air/fuel problems at high rpm, im only useing the stock injectors the 19lb. If I increase to 36lb injectors will I need a bigger fuel pump or anything to resolve this problem, or what size should I get? Also would it be a good idea to convert the car to MAF, and would I need a new ecu to do that or will the sensor work with the stock ecu. I know I would need to have the MAF sensor calibrated for the injector size. Please any help would be great, Iv had so many problems with this car and want to just get them all resolved. Thanks again.

Yeah some injectors and fuel pump is a must, your going to blow head gaskets or worse the motor.

SC cars need tuning.

aww what a rim job lol,

this guy brought hope into my eyes, i thought i might be able to slap a SC on without a MAF conversion.

no biggy, not like the conversion is a big set-back
