That is correct.

I gues the bigger question is why do you need them.

My bud just got his car retuned, running on a stock pump and stock injectors for a 2002, used to make 420 rwhp cam only before a 12 bolt, went to 380's and was retuned today to about mid 390 @ a 86% duty cycle.

#42 Green tops max, no need for more, the Wet Kit will supply its own fuel, get a decent pump such as a Racetronix 255lph w/ hotwire
