    Default Stock injectors?

    I am just wrapping up my project and am not sure if my stock injectors are up to par..
    The car has cnc ported heads, 235/243 cam, and stock intake. Hopefully going to at least start the car tomorrow night on the stock injectors. Do you guys think I need to jump up to bigger injectors??

    For sure will get injectors and tune before I find the big end. Any concerns with just getting it started? Or putting around town?

    After seeing the FIC videos on youtube comparing stock injectors and there bosch type 3. The stock injectors looked pretty sad. they looked like a garden hose spraying fuel. I would definitely look into injectors

    For a normally aspirated engine running gasoline, I've found you can estimate the MINIMUM injector size by multiplying the FLYWHEEL HP by 0.07

    Example: 500 flywheel HP x 0.07 = 35 #/HR

    That's based on a less conservative model (0.476 BSFC/85% DC) than the typical calculators that recommend an 0.50 #/HR/HP BSFC, and an 80% duty cycle. But is seems to have worked for all the LT1's I've used it on.

    There is nothing wrong with going oversize on the injectors, as long as you don't get ridiculous. The stock PCM seems to be able to turn down 42 #/HR injectors to the low pulse widths required for idle.

    As far as the N2O, that only becomes a factor if you are using a dry setup. Boost is a whole different story.

    Its going to be spinning around 7k on 93 octane and lets say about a 175 dry. As far as cam im not really sure. Tony Mamo is grinding it for me. I think he said right under 600 lift. Not for sure though he said it was an awesome cam.
