Default What size injectors with new APS turbo kit. Plus other ?

I've got 30# SVOs right now. will they work. Also need cam options. Want the best power and idle sound. Also with this cam will comp 918 springs work.
I plan on getting 6.0l heads and have them just polished smoothed not ported. Is that best, b/c thats what I heard a few years back. not sure now these days.
Also what heads gaskets do I need to help lower the comp ratio.

this will be a stock 346 Ls1, I say stock. Stock bottom end.

Any help is great. Been a Heads cam guy for years now and making the switch.
thanks again.

Mototron 60's for injectors. Stock cam will work fine. For a custom cam try Speed Inc.

With upgraded injectors I assume we would also need an upgraded fuel pump, right? I was looking at 60lb injectors and was wondering about the pump as well.

If you want to do it right the first time, buy the Racetronix dual intank pump set-up from Lonnies...if will be safe and let you grow down the road....last thing to skimp on in a turbo car is fuel supply.

Yeah I definitely don't want to starve the engine and blow something up. Thanks.

I agree 100%.

The Motron 60's will work awsome....
The nly other things you will need is
1. boost gauge $50
2. Elec Fuel Pressure Gauge $190
3. Wideband. $250-450. Dyno-tunes is $250.
4. Tuner.... who is going to tune the car. $500-750
Then save $$ for broken drivetrain parts and sve for forged short block.
Now the heads will work fine to lower compression.....that is the correct way to do it.... not a thicker gasket....

So I guess everyone is saying the 30# SVO injectors I have now wont flow enough to keep up with the APS turbo kit. How much HP will the SVOs handle?

And will the Racetronix P/P flow enough for the kit. Not the duel just the single drop in.

And use factory head gaskets. not the thicker ones. Is this right?

Well I know I dont want to use a stock cam, so what is everyone else running?

DO I need the bigger fuel rails for the intake. I only plan on having maybe 650rwhp for the car. With a stock bottom end how much boost can I run, with 6.0 heads and a good tune. And what Hp would I get. Thanks

Many different answers to those questions. IMHO, if it was my car with a stock bottom end and 6.0 heads:

1. Limit the rwhp to 550
2. 60 Mototrons....don't even look at the 30's
3. If the single Racetronix was already in the car it "should" be ok....check it on a wideband to be sure (for 550).
4. Stock feed line and rails if you keep it down to 550rwhp.
5. Cam...stock is fine for more hp than 550...if you want it for the "sound" then aftermarket is ok.
6. Around 8psi +-

650rwhp...add a built short block, rails,FMPR, return line. Twin Walbros.
