    Injector size for full bolt ons with future hci upgrades?

    Can is use 42# injectors on a truck with no internal engine mods as long as its tuned for them?Just LT's w/ ory,exhaust,CAI,ported tb,and 160 stat?

    Will do heads/cam/intake one day and eventually stroker when the engine dies.

    Ive read the stockers are to small even on stock trucks much less when u start modifying them.

    Agree with DBRODS. 42 pounders will be plenty. Just look at my sig and I'm only running my injectors at 84% duty cycle.

    ~ Forged engine of some type ~ Ball bearing turbo of an unconfirmed size ~ 4L8000 trans ~ Beefy fuel system ~

    My stockers with hardly any mods are in the high 80's to low 90's before the 1-2 so get what you're gonna need in the future now.

    We need to know the injector part number you have on your engine to determine what size they are.

    Too small. I have hardly any mods and I'm in the 90% range.
