Default LS1 head/intake setup

This summer, I am planning on doing a major overhaul. I have done a lot of research on which parts to get with my price range. I have a Thunder Racing Cam, exhaust, and other mods already and wanted to get the full performance out of it. I plan on going with ABSOLUTE SPEED 2.5 HEADS, F.A.S.T COMP. INTAKE MANIFOLD, BORED OUT THROTTLE BODY, ACCELL PERFORMANCE FUEL INJECTORS, AND GRANETELLI MASS AIR FLOW. I hope for some major increase in performance, which im sure of, I am just not sure what pound injectors to use. My bottom end will remain stock. Should I do 24lb/h or 30lb/hr, and does this set up seem aplicable?

im going to hopefully doing the same thing as you for the spring/summer....heads/maybe bigger cam/Fast 90mm setup. i was researching and i came up with 30# injectors. don't forget about a new lid for a 85mm MAF. does anybody know if TSP sells them still?

My $.02, skip the GMAF unless you have a tuner who knows how to deal with it. Go with 30lb if anything, but that all depends on whether you really need them. If you're only making 400HP with a TR cam and AS heads, you could probably get away with stock 99's (26.4? ) or bump up to Z06 injectors which are 28.8.( I got mine for $60 ).

You won't even need injectors. And I'm with Viper, skip the GMS maf, I've heard of people losing power w/ those. Other than that, your setup looks good man. Have fun.
