ok so this ? probley has been asked before, But how do you decide what injector size u would need. I planing a 331, with trickflow heads. I don't know the what intake I'm going to us yet. But going to have 8.1 or 8.5 c/r with running atleast 15psi all the time from a HP turbo kit. is there some formula to figuring it out?

Umm...what engine managemnet system you plan on using? How much power do you dream of making? What fuel system, i.e. Fuel pump, rails, lines are you plan on using?

well want to be making about 800hp or so. probley run dual 255lph pumps to keep up, aeromotive fuel rails, AEM ECU. Turbomustang.com 92 stang is pretty much my dream car. It had everything I wanted before I even found the site. I beleave he's running 83lbs'ers, but how do they know they had to use ones that big.

800rwhp or flywheel? Probably going to need more than those dual 255's.
Here is a general fuel injector calculator: http://www.iroczone.com/calcs/injectorsize.htm

800rwhp isnt really streetable, yes you can run it on the street, and yes with a 331 you will have to run race gas and about 20+ PSI to achieve that rwhp number. But if your just aiming for bikes, you really only need around 600rwhp. But anyways with all that aside, I hope you have alot of coinage to spend on this stuff and to get to that power level, and good luck with the project. Just please don't kill my family when your trying to race these bikes.

oh yah, 800 rwhp is about 1000 crank horse power

I just want to be able to beat those bikes with no problems. I mean sure I would love to beat those high HP 03 cobras and stuff too, so maybe you're right. I'm not a dumbass driver, don't worry. I just love the look on there face when they take off then I pass then. Priceless,....
