Default Tuning for #42's???

I am in the middle of a head cam swap and have a set of green top #42's sitting on a shelf in the garage. Since everything is off the car right now, I would like to install the new injectors but am worried about running too rich until I can get a tune.

Is there anything I can do, (Hypertech, etc.) to tune for the new injectors? Do I have to worry about driving it,( washing the cylinders), to get it to a tuner?

Just switched the ratchet around to "install", any help is appreciated...

what I understood is you`ll put heads and cam ...

from what I read is keep the stock injectors and drive it with low rpm`s (not past 3000) and let the tuner install it or a shop near the tuner and the tuner will put a basic tune for the bigger injectors then tune it. just wait maybe someone else will have a better opinion.

Just use the stockers for now, it wont be that big of an issue. Then put the green top's in when you are gonna get a tune.

Looks like the stockers are going back in... Seems like such a waste when the whole thing is torn down...
