Default heads/cam

okay so i finally decided on my heads cam combo.
im going with the prc stage 2.5 5.3l heads and the ms3 on a 112 lsa.
the supporting mods that are also going on is
pacesetter coated LTs
catted y pipe
ported oil pump
underdrive pulley
c5r chain
ls7 lifters
85 mm maf
160 t-stat
injectors- what size do i need? which are good ones that are kinda cheap(on budget)
lid
smooth bellow
4.10s
gaskets,bolts and fluids
and dyno tuned

aslo some of the other stuff i have and/or getting to make the car nicer or more fun is line lock, fan control switch, new tires/rims, mt drag radials, and some apperance mods.(not that any of this would make a differance but it makes the car nicer and more fun)

i am still going through stock ls1 intake tho. would it be worth it to keep the stock ls1 intake and save up for a fast 90/90 or would i be happy with a ls6 and ported throttle body for a while?

im probably going to go with the ls6 intake and ported throttle body since im on a budget and save up for a fast 90/90. so what will my times be and what will i dyno?its only going to go to the track twice a year mostly racing from a roll or on a closed street. im thinking that i have a up top cam and down low heads so it gives me a balance throughtout the hole band. this should be a good setup for me right? after this i have to save up for a clutch and rear lol

i woud just go w/an ls6 intake they are cheap and not hard to find. i would upgrade the fuel pump to 255bph and your injectors that is on you some say change some so you will be ok. if you dont change your injectors when tune the car check your duty cycle if it is over 85% you need bigger injectors

ok so i guess im going to go with an ls6 intake and ported throttle body. does anybody know who ports them? and im pretty sure im going to need bigger injectors but i dont know what size? if i go with bigger injectors do i need to uprade the pump?

vette doctors is going to do most of the work and tune. im 3 miles away from them so the work that i do it shouldnt hurt the 3 mile drive if the car is running lean.

No need for the fuel pump. You can be alright with 28lbs injectors, if youre really on tight budget.

I say you'll hit 440rwhp and 390rwtq...time it all depends...easy 12s at around 119-122mph

I used the fast 36# injectors and they were a pretty good price.
