36# injectors will just give you a hard time when it comes to tuning it. A local mustang owner has a set of TFS TW heads, Edlebrock performer intake, 10.5:1 compression 306 and a custom cam, he runs 30# injectors with a base pressure of something close to 60psi of fuel.... idk why


personally i think he should be running a stand alone engine management unit.... there are so many easier ways to tune your car then using the stupid EEC

24#ers will be fine.
I got the same setup with a 190lph fuel pump
afr185's
rpm2 intake
9-1 compression
and to get an air/fuel ratio of 13-1 I only need 29psi fuel pressure.

i say, if youre donw with it go with 24's. if youre thinking about doing more to it, go ahead and get 30's. you can adjust the f/p to work well with each so its no big deal really.

That's one weak stroker if you only need 24s.
