Default 60lb injectors overkill for ~500 rwhp

I am piecing together my procharger for my 2001 camaro ss and will be aiming

for around 500 rwhp and am unsure whether or not 60 lb injectors will be more

than I need for my set up. single walbro pump

Injectors is one thing you can go big on... You'll want more after 500 so you'll have some room to grow without buying injectors again

Siemens Deka 60's should be fine. Ideally, use an external FPR(with boost reference) and dial it down to 3bar for the 60lb flow rate. They flow closer to 72lb at 4bar....so as stated above, definitely room to grow.

Also....you're going to need to address the fuel pump issue. A single Walbro won't be enough, IMHO.

60 will be plenty. you going with a FPR? I would if I was you. One walbro won't be enough also.

60's will be fine, but you are at the limit of a single pump.

Feel free to call if you would like to discuss in more detail.

yea 60s will be no problem, im making 520 on 42lb injectors and will soon be up to 575-580ish on the same ones, so you def have enough with those 60s, especially if you ever plan on going up in power
