Default Another "what size injector" question

I'm trying to tie up all my loose ends and be ready for my new solid roller cammed ARE motor when it gets here. I don't have any guesstimates for hp, but it will be a fairly high rpm motor. I have the stock '98 injectors now, but I think it would be safer to step up to something a little bigger.

I'm thinking SVO 30#'s or 36#'s would be good, but I don't know which would be better suited. The 36#? Since I plan to turn some pretty high rpms, I figure the 36# would probably work well since the injector PW would be shorter, which I believe would become an issue at high rpms with the stockers.

Any quick replies would be appreciated, as there are a set of 36#'s on eBay I could pick up for a good price, but the auction ends shortly...

Help!

Actually, it did help. Thanks Harlan. I think I'll go with the 36#'ers, although reading that post makes me think a 42# wouldn't be a bad choice.

Better safe than sorry, SVO 42#'ers on the way... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
