I'm on stock pump. She sig.

Stock injectors I believe are 36's and are good with full bolt one and cam. Once you do intake and head work the stock injectors begin to run out of steam

Stock injectors are 28lbs and will be fine cam only. If you do a FAST intake you will need bigger injectors...... fuel pump will get you to around 500rwhp. The stock clutch will be fine, I beat on mine with nitrous and a cam for a while and it never gave me a problem.

Nah, you will be fine with the stage 4 BTR cam. Stock intake manifold will hold you back some with the bigger cam.

SO on my HCI car adding some injectors and having it re-tuned would pick up some more HP?

I live at sea level. Got a medium sized cam, fast102, and lontubes. Haven't seen even 90 percent duty cycle yet. Find it hard to believe a cam and fast will put you near 100 percent duty cycle.

Don't think you're going to gain horsepower by simply using larger injectors. I'd think any gains from injectors will be negligible at best... I mean maybe aftermarket injectors will atomize the fuel better.

The reason is because... LS2 injectors are larger and won't need to have injectors replaced. LS6 injectors are smaller and the potential to need them replaced is increased.

Ls2 injectors are good for about 430whp after there that will be around 100 duty cycle. Also ford racing uses Siemens injectors which are plug and play for our application.

I say get the bosch for the spray pattern is wider and better than the ford racin...

The ford racin has a narrower spray pattern than the bosch, and in NA you want a wide pattern to maximize the atomization of the fuel...

Siemens deka make injectors for FRPP....they are used in a TON of cars. It's sometimes hard to find flow data however which makes them a little trickier to tune.

How any V can have Heads/cam/intake and be on stock injectors is beyond me.

My mustang swap with a stock ls6 intake and TB, stock 241s, 4.10s gears and 28" slicks made 417rwhp cam only. Add a FAST to a big cam and itd see another 15-20rwhp......thats injector time. Not every setup is the same.

Yes, i did have the ford racing injectors in my V a few yrs ago, but when i swapped to the bosch green injectors, 42lb, i picked up 5-10 HP across the curve, and i was using less fuel.

In my books that is a double win.

If you buy them from brutespeed aka bob one of the first guys to develop a procharger kit for v1 he provides injector data.
