Default injectors

just wondering, Is it bad to have 24 lb injectors and a 155LPH fuel pump on a stock 5.0?

Might not be too good, but i'm not sure if it will actually harm it or not. But there is no need for 24# injectors on a stock motor. But the fuel pump should be fine, cuz the motor takes what it need, and the rest goes into the return line. So the fuel pump should be fine.

There is an injector chart in the stickies up top. You can tell by the color of the injector what size they are. Also, its not going to necessarily hurt your motor but you do not need them at all on a stock 5.0 the stockers are good for about 300rwhp.. The fuel pump doesnt really matter; its a return system so the fuel that you do not use gets cycled back into the tank.

Leave the 19's. 24's will be a waste and too large for a stock set up.
