Default What size injectors do i need for 8-13 psi???

Just curious what size injectors you would recomond for a c5 stock 347, running 8-13 psi. I will be upgrading the motor soon so i dont want to max out the injectors, so i want some room to play. And what fuel pump do you guys feel works the best.

60's will be easy enough to tune and leave you some room.

i would base inj's off of how much flywheel hp you plan on making, and adjust from there.

As has been mentioned, 60 lb injectors work very well, and will give you good part throttle driveability, and allow for room to grow.
Lingenfelters offer a drop in fuel pump for approx $300.00 or so, that works very well in the C5's. Bob

Will those Bosch 60s work with stock LT1 fuel rails?

I believe LS1/LT1 injectors are interchangeable. LS1's run higher fuel pressure, so the Flow rating will actually be less for the LT1 if you run stock fuel pressure...if that makes sense.
