It would feed enough fuel for the engine to run ok and have fun with, but not enough fuel for the engines potential. An aftermarket fuel injection system with a stand alone computer for tuning would be the way to go.

My biggest concern is not having enough fuel when I'm at the top end and burning up the motor

I built a 97' 5.7 Vortec for my 95' Chevy K1500. We figure there is about 400 hp. I ran out of money and ended up putting a TBI Vortec intake on with the biggest Holey TBI on it to be able to hook everything up original. I had to have a chip programmed for the OBD1 computer to make it run properly. She screams. I just don't thrash on it but do open it up once in a while. It just would be unreal with that $2100 fuel injection system. So you probably would need your computer reprogrammed, I assume it is a OBDII. You would be able to run with the spider injection until moneys saved for a better system.
