RE: Lots of new mods, when to upgrade fuel? (i searched)
i have the same mods, except a bigger maf and electric fan, along with some suspension work.
my car ran 14.6 @ 95 mph first time ever being raced
now it runs low 14's all day and with a 1.9 '60 foot i know i could get into high 13's

dont worry about fuel upgrades just yet... you can run teh stock pump & injectors up to around 250whp, i'd say your around 215 right now

probably from 250 to 300 you should start considering. I swapped out to 24's and a 255lph pumpat 250, but I was getting a little lean up top.

if you stroke it, no h/c/i get 24's
if you just do h/c/i, 24's should be enough
if you stroke and h/c/i then get 30's
there is no reason, and i mean none, besides if there is a BIG price difference, to NOT get 42's or bigger, you need a tune either way, and it doent matter if they are 24's or 124's, they will operate the same after being tune, the 60lb+ are a different impedience (resistance) and other things have to be considered, but for this thread, this info will not be of use.
if you ever plan to add boost, just get the 42's or the step bigger, forget what size that is.
