I think I am going to put together a new combo. I was going to use AFR 165's and a custom cam 555/562, 225/235@.050. I am using 1 3/4 long tubes with a 3.73 gear. I have a 70mm tb and a 75mm pro M air meter. What size injectors do you guys think i should run?? I have a set of 30# injectors but don't know if they will be to much. And I was thinking of going with the new Edelbrock RPMII intake, what intake, gear and injectors do you guys rcommend?? It is all going in a 2900 pound car. any info is appreciated!!!!!!!

I dont think you need 30# injectors but if you have them use them it wont hurt just adjust the fuel pressure accordingly. I would say 24# would work better but it is no big deal to go bigger and adjust fuel pressure! I also not sure that you need a 70 mm tb either. I say this cause the afr 165's are a street head and not that aggresive.

With that combo DO NOT GO less than 30#...run it at the stock fuel pressure of 38-40 psi...I would go ahead and upgrade to a better MAF...Pro-M 80mm...The Edelbrock Performer seems to work well with those head...BUT the RPM II is a killer intake as well...more higher RPM intake so it really depends how high you want to rev the car...3.73's are really good and should work well with your setup...
