Default Fueling help???

Well for starters i was planning on a turbo build but plans have changed and i just gonna do a h/c nitrous car, i sold my fuel rail and injectors so i need to figure out what i am going to do

I am thinking speed inc. budget fuel rails but i dont know what size injectors i should go with. My cam is the torquer v2 and i am planning on some stock used ls6 heads... will 30 pound injectors be too much?

The nitrous is a zex wet kit so that shouldnt matter about injectors right?

Also should i do a hot wire kit for my fuel pump? and should i go with a walbro or will the stock pump be ok?

30# Ford injectors will probably be right around 80-85% duty cycle with that motor setup, will it hold ? yes, but if you get better mods down the road they wont be enough...you will need an aftermarket pump with nitrous, especially with a modified engine... i used the Racetonix kit, with good results, on an 01 Camaro I used to have

Racetronix pump with hotwire kit. Install was easy and works great. I also have the TV2, and soon will be getting 30# SVO's. They should do you just fine, even with the LS6 heads. When you get it tuned just have them check the duty cycle, which I'm sure they would do anyways.

yep, racetronix 255 entire kit. I would go with 30# or even 36# injectors, they won't be too much. Thats what I Was runing right after doing my headers & intake swap.
