Default Tuning injectors....

Got a hold of some Siemens 60# injectors...
Will it be feasible to run them on a built motor, ls6 intake , tqv3, 2.5 heads LTs and all the bolt ons. Walbro 255 w/ harness, fast rails....
And a 200 shot. I have those and stock injectors. Will the 60s be ok and and can a good tuner make em work or is it overkill?

From what I understand they can be tuned to work, but since I have 42's with a similar build I can't "promise" you that lol

No reason a good tuner can't get them right.
Is the 200 shot wet or dry?

Reason I say it should work is back when I had my 04 Mustang Gt I had it tuned for 42 lb injectors and it ran perfectly fine. The car was just bolt ons, cams, and a 100 dry shot. I got a great deal on the 42's, so I went with them. N/A the car would have been fine with the stock 21's, but my tuner made the 42's work fine
