WOW! A 12.3 is a really good time! How did you manage that? Do you got any other mods than whats in your sig?
Also Merv, what weight reduction stuff have you done to get your race weight down?

No need to remove the engine. http://shbox.com/ci/cam_removal.html
I have had the hotcam kit with a madz28 tune for about 2 years with no problems. Love the performance and the sound and run it up to 6200 - 6400 all the time.

You don't ever really pick up horsepower from replacing injectors unless your current ones are maxed out and you're actually not giving the motor enough fuel. Usually larger injectors are needed with a heads/cam package, or possibly a more radical cam -- but the hot cam is mild in terms of needing to replace the injectors.

Agree with WhyHello
I was seeing 328hp with nothing changed other then the hot cam, headders, and cat back. With the CC305 and 1.6 rockers it bumped up to 337hp but had valve spring wear. The lt4 springs are to max at .525 ie hot cam. I was at .540 with the CC305
