Default C&L MAF question

I recently bought a used 76mm C&L MAF with a 24lb calibration tube. I'm currently running 19lb injectors and my question is, would it be safe to run the 24lb MAF with my stock 19lb injectors?

why did you buy the MAF with the 24lbs tune? if you are pushing over 300hp just make sure your next mod is some 24lbs injectors

It was used and at a good price... I'm pretty much all stock right now.

Do not use meter calibrated for 24's with your 19's

just buy a new 19# sample tube for the meter, good thing about C&L meters is
the easy to change them over.

Cool, I already ordered a 19# tube... I'll just hang on to the 24# tube when I do decide to upgrade.

No doubt. It's not worth keeping a 24 lb. tube in the MAF with 19 lb. injectors.

The tubes are cheap and sim ple to install.
