Injectors are like 28lbs from the factory.

I upped to 36Lbs with my cam swap. No fuel pump should not have to be.

Im easy on my car. I still have the Factory Clutch and it doesnt slip. YET.

The 2000 cars had 26lb injectors from the factory. Typically on a cam only setup you can stick with the stock injectors and fuel pump and still be alright. Once you add heads usually the injectors will need and upgrade.

Most likely you should be ok, but get a scanner and monitor the injector duty cycle percentage one it is up and running.. but would hurt to step up the inject size a few #'s !

Was wondering how much WHP the FAST 36lbs injectors will hold up to on NA cars?
