I would wait until you get the heads cam and intake. 19# injectors are good up to about 300 horsepower give or take a few

I guess you could, but you would have to recalibrate you Maf for 24# injectors.

you can with a really good tune

but you'll have to keep in mind with 24's that your gas mileage will go down because more feul is going to be forced through
