Cool My up coming setup

I have a 1998. So far Ive ordered the following:

Yank 4000 stall
Texas Speed Precison Race Components Stg 2.5 5.3L Heads & 233/239/113 Cam package w/ TSP Ported LS6 Oil Pump, LS2 timing chain, and Pacesetter headers.

So far I already have the usuall bolt on's. With that said what injectors should I go with, what's the stock fuel pump rated to, and people with and have seen this combo what type of power should this make on a stock shortblock?

look into some svo 30lb injectors, i think your fuel pump should be ok at your power level, unless you are spraying then you will probably need 42lb injectors and a better fuel pump. you should make some good power but look into a better intake manifold, it will definetly be holding you back. you can pick up a used ls6 for about $300.
stalled autos dyno lower than m6's and with the ls1 intake manifold i guess around 400 rear horse power with the converter locked. but at the track is where it will shine, you should run in the 11's with a sticky tire and a good launch.

Forgot to mention I do plan on getting a used LS6 intake and T/B locally. How much do 30#'s go for these days? Also what else engine wise should I go with? Ive read rod bolts but Im unsure.

-ive seen svo 30's for about $200 used not sure how much they are new. depending on your mileage i would replace the lifters while you have the heads off.
-most people use the comp oem ones or you can use the ls7 ones. rod bolts would be good to replace, but time consuming to replace.
-hardened pushrods
-i would replace the motor mounts with some poly ones, they are about $60, it will keep your exhaust from banging the floorboard.
-if you have some extra cash, think about a underdrive pulley, about $200 but good for 8-10 hp and about a .1 in the quarter mile
-also will you be installing a trans cooler, defintely need to with any stall converter
