Default H/C/I trimmings required?

I am looking at getting the trickflow kit and I was wondering what would be 'needed' to go with this kit from my stock car, vs. what is recommended? I am guessing I'd need a different throttle body and MAF sensor? What about injectors? would I be ok with stock? Any input would be nice.

summit racing part number TFS-K514-350-370 or TFS-K514-350370B. I don't really know the difference between them, but the price is the same.

well with new heads nad intake you need more fuel (bigger injectors) from what im told at least 24lb, to suppost those you need a new fuel pump. not to mention a tune afterwards

your stock 19's will work with better fuel pump but will be maxed out at high rpm's
24's would be little better

also, think about installing new lifters while you have everything apart
new thermostat and elbow off intake would be good idea too.

so that complete kit doesn't come with lifters? also, my thermostat is new, I had an overheating problem when I bought the car, and I didn't know enough to ask what size thermostat they put in. I might be able to go find out however.
