Get K-poop, and then ignore Doug's LIES regarding what to do with the fuel system. You want to convert the fuel system to a return style with external FPR - the intank FPR, despite Doug's LIES, is incapable of holding pressure when any real flow is taking place. Past ~8 psi with inefficient old 60-1 compressor caused fuel pressure to drop clean away on a number of Walbro 255 HPs.

I doubt the K-series injector spacing is the same as B-series. I'd dearly love to say yes, but your answer is probably a big fat HELL NO.
The aftermarket K-series rails just have a plug in one end and you have to run an external-to-the-rail FPR which can be a few $$. I suggest haunting domestic forums for deals on used stuffs. It's a shame the aftermarket K-stuff don't have the earlier OBD0-2B Honduh FPR provision... although maybe your could drill + tap a rail to fit one. Cheap and effective.

Cybercrapnation's badly fabricated joke of a kit that needs every "bolt together" piece of it kicked or tweaked or fabricated on from charge pipe to downpipe to re-surfacing the manifold flanges because they are warped... ah... also comes with a nifty piece of blue anodized aluminum pipe that you plumb as your fuel return into the cas tank.
Oh, BTW, in case you haven't heard Cybernation sucks.

K-poop lets you use the factory wideband - $300 less you have to spend.
I do think K-poop is a bit picey yet, but not as pricey as the initial sticker shock makes you feel. There are a number of features they have that sweetens the pot.
Personally? If I laid hands onto an el-cheapo K-series, I'd lock the intake cam at zero since that's pretty much where it's at under boost, and use something cheaper than K-poop.
