Default fuel injector advice

Help! I have a 99 camaro with a 408 and etp heads. I also have a ls6 intake and a stock tb but i'm in the market for a ported 102 set up. What size injector should I purchase and which manufacturer should I buy from? I would also like to leave some room to grow with. I would appreciate any advice someone could give me.

Jump on this special for the forum. These will drop in both intakes and plug right in without wire adapters

Will the 42# injectors allow me some room to grow? What if I went with a Turbo or super charger, can I still use those injectors. Can I go bigger and set the tune for what I have now? Thank you for your advice I was already looking at your site.

These will be fine up to a booster, then you need at least 60, at this price you can sell them or trade them towards 60 when you need them

Will those 42# work with the set up I have now? Ls6 intake and will I need to get it re tunned?

They will drop right in, these are Bosch made in the same mold as the stock grey ls1 ls6 injectors, except these are 42

Spray pattern match? Wall film contribution to transient fueling anyone?

A set of LS3 injectors (41#/hr @ 58psi) will also drop right in with a set on length wiring adaptors. Better yet, they have the correct spray pattern and complete data for them is available just by looking at any LS7 or LS3 file.
