Unless you go with far bigger injectors, it's not going to make you run any richer. As long as the EEC has been told what you're doing, it can deal just fine with larger injectors. I don't think it would be any easier to tune either way, as long as the injector is big enough go with it.nmcgrawj said:So thats about 382 rwhp right? If i did go with 36s, would it run terribly rich?
Would the 30s be easier to tune since it will be in the middle of its power band?
THANKS SO FAR!
I'd go with a minimum of 36. 382 RWHP is going to come very easy for a 351, and the 30's will be maxed. You could use any stock type high impedance injector and not run terribly rich; that includes 42's.HairyCanary said:Unless you go with far bigger injectors, it's not going to make you run any richer.

Yup.Grn92LX said:With a good streetable custom cam, thats easily 400+rwhp. Unless you have some weak blower compression? I'd use that tfs r 351 intake or a victor 5.8. If you dont have the injctors yet, I think im gonna have to recommend 42's. I cant believe people would recommend a 24lb injector for that combo!
Assuming the heads are what the person claims they are and you buy a sufficient manifold and camshaft, the car will probably make 1.2-1.3 hp/cube at the flywheel. Cripe, I have a Hot Rod magazine where they pulled 380 horsepower out of a 351 with GT40P heads and some kind of small OTS cam. Horsepower becomes much easier to make when using a 351 instead of a 302 as a base.nmcgrawj said:WHOA, i havent seen anyone of the 351's (non stroked) run 42's, but i haven't seen that many. That seems like a whole lot of fuel. I thought this combo would be tough but you guys make it sound like a beast. I still cant see getting that much power out of the parts.
The most popular i have seen with 351 combos are 30 and 36's. Feel free to shed some light on my ignorance.
Thanks
EDIT: What is blower compression? (When no blower is being used?)
