2 things, if i buy a 24 lb F/I to replace the stock 12, would it damage my engine at all, and also, would my A/F ratio go outa wack? i could fix A/F ration with my tuner, but owuld need to get a A/F gauge to look at it. Thanks.

well first, youd need to replace all of them. second, you need aditional mods to go with the injectors, like a MAF, TB/PL, and a tune.

Stockers are 19 lbs for one... and you wouldn't see any benefit really upping them at this point.

i know theres 8 03redgt, lol, so, with stock ****, how many pounds could i go up to? I plan on additional modding in the future anyways, like the tp plenum etc....but just wondering what i can do with a stock? I already have the tuner, and i have 4.10's comin in the mail, which will prolly need the extra gas to keep the horses up at higher speeds, but what lb. would u suggest for now?and sorry bout that, thought stock was 12, my bad.

just a quick chime in here, but once my 4.10's, my prochamber and my 75mm TB and Plenum would I benifit from upping it any?
just wondering if I should get some fuel injectors now (if I would see gains) so I don't have to pay for another dyno tune

rbstang, i plan on more then what i already have, and also, my comment about the 4.10's would bigger F/I help keep the horses up with the steeper gears?

no need to upgrade factory injectors unless you get blown (S/C or Turbo) same goes for the TB. Wasted money on useless mods. Work on the exhaust first, port and polish your existing intake manifold and head next, then go for other things...oh yeah, gears in there somewhere too.
