Default Injectors... A good mod?

I am looking at buying a ls6 intake off the ebay and it comes with 28lb injectors. I believe my 2000 has 26lb injectors. Would the larger injectors be a noticable improvement over what I currently have?

Car is stock as of now, however I plan on installing headers and true duals as well as a lid and tune so just wanted to know if larger injectors would be worthwhile as well.

What would I expect to pay on injectors If I bought them seperate from pkg deal on a intake?

At that power level, it probably wouldn't make a difference. If you are going to upgrade injectors, you might as well go ahead and upgrade to like 42's or whatever your power level you expect to get to will require. Oh, and you'll have to tune for different injectors. Car won't run right without a tune.

Thanks man... Appreciate it.

I was not sure if it would be worthwhile or not.

There is no need for that big of an inj unless you plan on spraying it with a dry kit. You will not notice any diff in the inj at all. You might have some better throttle resp but thats it.
