She sure is a heavy pig, i just love the history of these cars and the style .
ITruck intakes flow pretty good just have to run a cowl hood or cut a hole out
79 firebird formula rts 403 auto ac car 80000 miles
Stock 10 bolt 2.41 gears replaced with 3.42gears
C clip eliminator installed
Original rear Disk brakes replaced with 4th gen disk conversion
Poly hardened bushings all the way around
Summit rear leaf springs 2" drop same in front 2" drop coil spring trying them out
Sub frame connectors bars
New fuel lines summit stainless steel braided
Kyb shocks
Factory ls1 98 harness n ecm
Hp tunner
Still in progress
Street strip car
4.8 is a 03, what size injectors should i run?
What at stall torque converter ? Best fuel pump.?
Any advise
Got a 6.0 but that's a maybe
I just love hearing that small block rev to 7000 rmps all day 4.8
Was gonna put it in my 95 formula t56 car but i already broke 2 rear ends .i have other plans for it later lq4 t56 swap

Stock injectors will be fine if you are going to stick with a stock or mild cam upgrade. Any basic electric fuel pump will do, unless you are going to go turbo, then I would check the Forced Induction forum for advice on what to go with. What trans will you be running?
