Default Bigger Injectors?????

I have a friend who is about to do a 224/224 112 lsa cam and he was wondering if he needs bigger injectors such as SVO #30's.

highly unlikely...

most guys can make it up to 425rwhp or so before they start hitting the max duty cycle of the injectors.

although some years had bigger injectors...don't recall which.

but wht that cam...it should be fine. i know i still have stockers with my 233/233 cam

Nope he should be fine with the stock injectors. No need to get bigger ones.

Question is too vague. What year car? 99>00 had 26lbs injectors and those run out of steam quickly, also what other mods on the motor.

This is going to fuel section

02s have 28# injectors, so he should be just fine....if he plans on adding more power later, it might be a good idea to go ahead and do it though.
