Default 19lb injector + boost

hey guys im wondering if i can get away with adding abot 8 lbs to my car with the stock injectors. i kno the paxton kit (6lbs) is fine with the stock injectors but now i have the upgrade pulley which is supposed to be around 8 lbs. i dont have any supporting mods. intake and heads are stock....bbk equals, flows, electric fan and smog pump delete. im in the middle of buildinga 351 so all the parts are on that i just want something to tide me over forr a few months while i finish the 351. can it be done safely?

Personally I wouldnt even think about it. You may be able to get away with it running a FMU though

well its the fmu that came with it...im not sure how effective it is or how much it ups the pressure. do you really think those2 lbs can make that big off a difference? i mean i ran the stock charger on it for a year with no problems at all...and ive herd a lot of ppl who do the same.

I wouldn't do it...I would upgrade injectors.. find some used ones if you are on a budget

If the kit was designed to run 19s then you should be fine.

just get 24s you will need them with the 351. and i dont think that blower with and 8 lb pully on a 302 will even make near two or three lbs on a 351
