Default Get New Injectors? Fuel Rail?

So now after my H/C swap I'm making a good 430rwhp and was wondering if I should step up to some larger injectors. I'm completely lost in this area and was wondering if I should upgrade my fuel system? Do I need a new pump as well? Any help would be appreciated!

EDIT: I can pass smog here in CA with aftermarket fuel rails and injectors right?

The injectors and rails will pass. And depending on duty cycle SVO 30#s or larger
should be your choice.

Can you pass CA emmisions with heads and cam swap? I see you have a 224/224 - 112 cam, has that one been known to pass the emmisions? I was going to choose a cam myself, but the emmisions test is putting me off.

the heads and cam i have now will pass emissions with no problems... yes they're aftermarket and not legal but there is no way of looking in the engine at the test station


also do you guys think i should get a new pump?
