Default My new engine combo

I'm in the middle of building a new engine combo for my truck.I've never built for a FI setup figured I'd ask for advise while things can still be changed.The engine specs are as follows a 6.0 iron block with Eagle 4" forged crank,SCAT 4340 H-beam rods,JE dished pistons,ARP main studs,a Comp Cams 228/234 115+4 .588/.598 camshaft,steel main caps,ported oil pump,R lifters,6.0 TEA stage 1.5 heads 77cc,ARP head studs and Yella Terra 1.7 rockers.This is to be used with a Radix intercooled supercharger.I'm planning to go with 57# injectors.I need suggestions before I put everything together.Thanks in advance

That's what Comp Cams suggested I wanted to redline the motor at 6600rpm to keep the supercharger revs below 18000.Plus the truck weighes 5400lbs.
