Author Topic: new heads and intake gt4me321 ¯ Member # 3098 posted                              i am thinking about buying someperformance heads and intake manifold in the near future. Will I have to change my 19# injectors to 24 or can I just leave them the way they are? and if I do change to 24# do I have to make the performance changes or can I run 24# on a pretty much stock motor with full exhaust. Thanks for your input Posts: 59 | From: oakland | Registered: Jul 2003  |  : Stimson _ Member # 51 posted                              Don't run 24lbs injectors on a stock or near stock 5.O. You can probably scrape by for a while with 19lbs injectors once you get the heads and intake, but 24's or 30's even would be better suited.

Just a piece of mind.

I would stick with the 19's until you get a power adder of somesort if you ever do -------------------- Go out and do something for yourself today everyone, quit depending on others -Me http://www.CaliforniaFords.com/cgi-bin/album.pl?album=00001689 Posts: 4003 | From: San Bruno | Registered: Aug 2002  |  : mike g ¯ Member # 2919 posted                              more air= more fuel hence the reason they are using more gas -------------------- FOUR EYED PRIDE!!!!!!
