wow!!! 30lb'ers on a stock 302!! way to much!!..your only hope would be put a adjustable fuel pressure regulator on there and dial down the fuel pressure..but I don't think that'll solve the issue...either add some serious H/C/I and or supercharge it to flacilitate the neccessity of such a larger injector
