Not only should you get 24s, you should get a FPR, Kirban and BBK both make a good one. I have ported stock heads, and need 24s, you with your stinkin' AFRs are sure to need them! I was running lean enough before my injectors and FPR that my car was running warm. Get bigger injectors.

That's what I thought. I figured while I was getting the MAF and stuff, I should go ahead and get the 24# injectors, as I have been told by many other people that the stock injectors become too weak and will begin to run lean. Thanks for the clearification.

yes unless you buy a fuel pressure regulator and a bigger fuel pump then you can squeeze quite a bit more out of them. but yes 24#'s are much easier then arent they?

Well I dont know. Do you think just a better pump and regulator would be enough to power a little more out of the 19# so that my car doesn't lean out?

The reason i ask is, If I do injectors I will have to take the upper intake off, well I plan on getting a new intake, but in order to do the intake and stuff, i was going to get new valve covers and 1.72 roller rockers. So, Either i get the new fuel pump and reg. if that will work, or wait and get all the parts, MAF, injectors, rockers, valve covers, and up/low intake.. That way i can do it all at once in stead of taking the intake and stuff on and off...
