Wink So what injectors fits this combo?

I am trying my best to do some budget performance work on my 99 ls1 in the 69 camaro.

so far I have

1. used ls6 intake
2. used thunder racing ported TB
3. hooker 1 3/4" headers and 2.5" dual exhaust
4. west coast racing stage II ls1 heads WCCH 2003
5. arp head bolts
6. GM mls gaskets 8544
7. ls2 timing chain
8. LS6 pump
9. Comp push rods
10. spec stage 3 clutch with aluminum flywheel
11. 99-TR230/236-112 Thunder Racing Custom Camshaft
"Split Pattern" - 230/236 .592/.602 112 LSA

Things that I Need

1. a set of injectors, What will work best for me?

the goals are a fast car at the track that is somewhat streetable. I have stock pistons and do not want to fly cut the pistons.

thanks
chris

id get a LS6 oil pump and a simple LS2 timing chain. As far as a cam, it allllll depends on what you want, your goals and what youre willing to do to make it work.

Most cam swaps not only need a chain and oil pump but springs, locks, retainers, and pushrods

Best Pump out there is the Melling Oil Pump. There are two kinds, the 295 and the 296. The 295 is a direct replacement and is basically OEM equipment, just made by Melling. The 296 is the performance Oil Pump which includes longer gears and creates more volume. Jus' don't put in the high-pressure spring. You could get this at Lingenfelter.com for 129.99 plus free shipping.

Good budget Timing Chain: JWIS Double-Roller from NewEraPerformanceParts.com. This can be had for 99.99.

Good Luck

I bought the LS6 pump and LS2 timing chain from

http://www.sdparts.com

Now i need to figure out what cam i want. My goal is for a fun street car that can be fun at the track. Idle is not a problem and i am not worried about "streetability"

well, are you an M6 or an A4 car? if you go with to big of a cam and yur an auto youd have to get a stall converter. and even then youd need tuning to perfect it

I say this cam...on a 112 LSA

http://www.texas-speed.com/shop/item...d=168&catid=44

:edit:

You may also wanna check into a ported MAF, and a set of injectors. SVO 30's would be good. What fuel pump do you plan on running? (I'd suggest a 255 at the least)
