Default injectors

Should I stay with stock injectors or go bigger and what are some suggestions. I am having my block bored 30 over, keeping the LT4 hot cam, and adding a stall converter and a shift kit and some computer work.

The stockers are marginal for a well performing HOT cam setup, a scan tool is the best way to tell as they can tell you the duty cycle. What you have to consider is that as you rev higher the injector has less time to be open and supply the fuel. I would suggest looking at having the heads worked a little while she is in pieces, should make a nice power improvement and would pretty much put you over the limit of the stock injectors. They would still work just not really well. If you do replace them I would suggest the SVOs a 30lbs. set should suffice 36lbs. wouldn't hurt though.

I really dont have the cash for head work right now, so you think that the stock injectors will be fine or if money allows should I go with the 30lb injectors.
