injectors??
well it looks like my head gasket is leaking between my #3 and #5 cylinder, I'm only getting 60lb on both and around 130 on all other cylinders. So I'm thinking of lossing my stock L98 in favor of a 406 I have sitting around. Planning on using Brodix IK 200cc heads and a Comp Cam 230/236. This will be topped off with my SuperRam intake. I'm thinking my stock 22lb injector will not support this combo? Can anyone suggest a size injector and brand that will be more suitable for my new application? PN# and a price range they sell at would be great to know as well?? I will be swapping over pretty much all the parts in mt sig so that will be my complete combo. Thanks

30's should work fine. I'm guessing ~450hp with that cam and heads (using DynoSE).
Ford red-tops are 30's I believe. Can get them anywhere and pretty cheap.

I have 36's in my 358 and it's too much. When I had a blower it ran lean, but n/a it's just too much fuel / too short injector pulse under low rpm low load.
Go with the 30s..

Re: injectors??
I agree with Red&Gold,,, 30#/hr Ford Racing injectors are correctly sized for your NA 406.
