Question need advice on injectors and cam

I'm new at this so bare with me. I have a 93 vert with 115k on it. It's been stock except for cai and a pulley upgrade but now I want to do some more upgrades. I’m going to get a bbk 70mm throttle body, bbk equal length headers with x and flowmaster exhaust. Now the question I have is, I got 24lb injectors from a friend. I want to know what do I need to do? Upgrade the maf sensor or what, to install them? Plus I want to upgrade the cam, what do you guys recommend for this set up? And I do plan on in the future doing the heads and intake when I get more money of course... Any other advice will be gratefully taken? Thanks in advance.

Save you money longer and just do everything at once IE injectors,heads,cam,intake etc...Just a cam swap will not improve preformance...you gotta do all the other stuff to benefit from it.

yes you need to get a mass air for the 24 unless you have way to change the injector transfer functions in the ECM. and like said the gain from the cam wont be that great till you get the cork pulled out of the system and that is the stock heads

thanks for the advice but the only reason i want to do the cam for now is cause i got an oil pan leak. since i got to replace the pan and lift the engine i thought it would be the perfect time to swap the cam. So what would be a good cam to start with. yes later i will do the intake and probaly go for afr heads....

I'm running the ford b303 cam but a very popular cam is the e303.

you don't need the injector now or most likely later either depending on what heads you buy, stock injectors can support up to around 300 hp before duty cycle is maxed out
