Default Need some advice please.

I am about to switch over to a LSX 90mm intake and LS2 TB. I currently have the Z06 fuel injectors and am wondering if I should go bigger when I do the swap, my cam and head specs are in my sig. Thanks for any help.

First question Do you have a stall converter in this car? if not put one there other than stock a yank 3200 would be nice, it good for street and track. When are you really goning to put the pedal to the metal and launch this thing down the track. By looking at your numbers this car is ready to lay down some serious times. Just go and do it and stop changing things, people would kill for the numbers you are showing. So is all show and no go? or is the owner a builder and not a driver? Please let me know.

Its an FRC so it's a 6spd, I'm thinking with the upgrade to the 90mm intake and TB I should be between 420 and 430rwhp so I am worried my stock Z06 injectors will be maxed out on providing fuel.

As to the track I definately go and was also set for my sub 12 sec run when the faulty clutch blew up about halfway down the track. Andy at A&A replaced it because RPS had a few go thru assembly without being "baked" correctly but I have not had a chance to go back since.

My plan is get the new intake and TB on and make a run before the car goes into winter heberanation. (I hate the north yet year after year I never move)

I don't know what ZO6 injector flow specs are, but most suppliers of blower kits that put out 450 RWHP supply 42 lb/hr injectors so that size would be ample for your 420 to 430 RWHP and one more modest upgrade.

May the BOOST be with you!
