Default upgrade fuel injectors?

i am currently having my 302 bored 30 thousandths over and am going to put a summit racing rebuild kit with fordged pistons. i am also going to buy a Trick Flow top end kit. http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...rsview=sku&Ns=

would i need to upgrade my fuel injectors for that? i have an adjustable fuel pressure regulator and i dont plan on boosting it or putting any nos to it.

I would for sure. 24lb/h should do the trick along with a calibrated MAF sensor...

upgrade your fuel pump to a 190lph or better and #24 injectors and you should be good to go

so pretty much if you put a aftermarket set of heads and a cam in it you have to upgrade the fuel system also?
