Default NOS dry kit advise please

I'm building your basic 400 RWHP S2 head/cam engine. At the last minute I have purchased the NOS 5177 kit. My question is, my stock injectors (28.8 pounds) and fuel pump are adequate for my head/cam engine but is it with an additional 100 shot? I'm pretty sure the answer is no. What is recommended for injector size and fuel system upgrade for say around 500 RWHP a 100 of which is from the dry shot.

Thanks Guys

With heads and cam and a 75 shot, I was maxing out my 26lb injectors. I upgraded to 36lb and with my setup on a 150 shot, I'm peaking my injectors at about 90%.

it should cost less just to convert your dry to a wet, prolly 150 bucks, thats less than new injectors and tuneing, I'd just add a fogger and go wet if I were you!

I definately wouldn't attempt to run nitrous ontop of a stock fuel system on a h/c car. The 30lb SVO's or the 36lbs should be fine to run h/c and nitrous (100 shot). If you want to go with a bigger shot (100+), I would definately go with the 36lb or higher injectors just to be safe.
