Default 5.0 Build up questions

i have a stock 5.0 H.O Block, i am putting factory cran .rods with hyper pistons, z303 cam AFR 1422 heads (185 CC runner 58CC combustion chamber 202 Intake and 160 Exh valve)1.6:1 rockers and a BBK SSI Intake with 75mm TB and MAF 75mm calibrated for 30lb injectors.

Question is that will this be a good build and will 30lb injectors be to much for it? Will i need to have the ECM flashed for this build ? Please advise me

I would spend just a little more money and get forged pistons. The cast hyper's just really aren't what they are cracked up to be............

choose a new cam, and 30's shouldnt be too much, but 24's might be a better match

what cam would you suggest ? this is a daily driver but i want to have fun smokeing the ricers and vettes.

If you could be so kind and provide cam numbers or who makes it with a part number. i have limited time right now due to the fact im in Taji Iraq.
