Your fuel pump can handle ~550 rwhp, I'm not sure how much the injectors can handle. If you use a wet kit they're not an issue.

98, and 01+ have bigger injectors. 28 lb/hr

NA, they should support about 450 at the motor. That's 100% duty cycle.

99 and 00 have 26 lb/hr

NA they should support about 420 at the motor. again, 100% DC

I know people have made more than that w/ the stock injectors. as the above numbers are a rough estimate.

an inline pump, or high flow intank is a wise choice as well.

the rails and lines will do you fine for awhile.

my numbers are on stock lines, 97 vette rail, and single walbro intank with SVO 42 lb/hr injectors.

Thanks guy, so it would probley be in my best interest to go ahead with a set of injectors because I have the stock 99's now 26/lb. but need the next size up. I'm guessing 36/lb and my stock pump would be fine? My comp. is tuned by Ed wright, would I have to send it back for and upgrade when I change inj's?

your thought's???
