Default Dry hit + heads/cam?
I just picked up a brand new Edelbrock dry kit on clearance for $248. I'll be doing a head/cam swap with some Patriot LS6 style heads and their .580/.590 225/229 114 cam. On say a 100 shot, would 36# injectors on a brand new stock pump with the Racetronix hotwire kit (I have a brand new pump and the hotwire kit) be sufficient or should I step up to 42#ers? Any opinions would be appreciated!
