I rebuilt the motor a year ago (New pistons, rings, bored over, turned crank, new bearings, balanced bottom end, shaved heads, valve job, oil pump etc.)

I decided that I wanted a little more out of it, so I pulled it again and now all of the mods include:

GT-40 heads (Shaved, Valve Job, .550" Lift Springs, Titanium Keepers), Comp Cams 35-302-8 cam, New Roller lifters, Pro-Form 1.6 Roller Rockers, Cobra Upper and Lower, 24lb injectors, CL 76mm MAF with 24lb sample tube, BBK Short Intake, Edlebrock 70mm TB, BBK AFPR, BBK Short tube equal length headers.

What kind of power should I be making and are the 24lb injectors too much for this setup? I was running the 24's on the stock e7 heads and it always ran rich. Any Info would be much appreciated.

I have less than 500 miles on the engine since the original rebuild by the way.

Your 24's should be fine, and will actually probably help you more than anything with the modifications you have done. Also - auto or manual trans? I've seen alot of varying HP #'s with similar setups, but if you're looking for an answer I think you'll be pleased. Hell those GT40's are significantly better than those nasty E7's alone, plus a better intake to compliment it. I think you'll be happy with your results for sure.

You'll notice a difference most definately in the seat of the pants.

ditch the gt-40's and get some real heads

Its funny that you say that ^ I told the machine shop to call me if the price would be over X amount and we would just order Aluminum Heads, They called me a week later and told me they were ready to be picked up and the price was double what I said the cut off was. So I could have spent another 200 dollars and had some RHS or AFR heads. But it was the springs, all the titanium keepers and stainless valves, and the roller rockers that jacked the price up, not to mention haveing all the spring rates set up. This is just the start of something small though. Ohh and its a Manual Trans with Alum Driveshaft, FRPP 3.73 gears and Tubular upper and lower control arms in the rear.

I hope with all that $$$ bigger valves were installed....also check PTV clearance..
I have about 400 in my gt's includes big valves..they flow fairly well in my S/C car
