Default Bigger injectors?

Im in the process of doing a cam swap. I already purchased 243 heads,MS3 cam, ls7 lifters, TSP 7.400 pushrods, and ls2 timing chain. Im only needing some double valve springs, and rear end gear to complete my setup. I Installed my 3600 precision stall yesterday and i think i should be running good. Only thing i need to find out is if im needing to change my stock injectors

Check out the GM injectors from supercharged Buicks. Cheap and they work great.

Last year I bought my Ford Racing 42lb green tops (EV1) for $200 new shipped. Now you can get the newer EV6 style 47lb injectors for $229.
