Default 1995 z28 Injector size for my fuel pump 255lph

i was wondering if you needed to run a bigger injector with the grandalli 255LPH fuel pump. beacuse my car boggs under an RPM load and does not have the same throttle responce. and i have the stock injectors in it. and it has a 1996 LT1 from a Corvette. does anyone know about having this issue?

stock injectors will be fine. why are you putting in a 255 pump? you don't need that either

No, nothing needs to be changed, as long as everything else is in good shape.

i just dont know y it boggs under a load i did a complete tune up with wires,cap,rotor,E3 plugs,fuel filter,fuel pump, thats y i cant figure that out. then after you put ur foot in the car it smooths out. the vette motor only has 95k miles. it has slp headers magnaflow exaust, jet MAP sensor and Moroso intake. the bogging under a load its very iritating lol. t

Your first mistake is wasting money on those horse **** E3 plugs!

I would check your fuel pressure first and foremost, whether you have a new pump or not.

Too many times we have seen people throw parts at their car without properly diagnosing the actual problem. This generally eliminates the aggravation!

Just do a pressure test... And that will tell u if the fuel system is working properly or not... What did u gap those over rated plugs at? And describe "bogging" because a stock lt1 motor under load isnt a power monster to begin with ... Are you comparing it to something? Also lot of people know their **** here so be open minded and listen when u ask questions not argumentative FTMFW
