Blown or just Blown Up?

I have a Holley stealth ram, Accel 24lb injectors, crane cam, headers, bullet muffler, msd6al, 58mm throttle body, and a superchip, in a 350, with stock heads 72cc I believe, with a 373 gear in my 86 Iroc, and I'm about to install a Vortech Supercharger. I plan to run about 6 psi of boost. Is this possible with what I have or will I need more parts. I also have a Granatoli fuel pump which claims 67 GPH. The pump is a V-1 S Trim which we made a bracket for to fit my setup. Since there's no kit for 86. So will it work or do I need to spend more cash?

I'll slide this over to where you might get some help. Personally, I'm thinking that the 24# injectors may be a little smallish.

Nevermind

We got the charger all hooked up today, sorry I can't say the same for my tires. What a difference. I don't appear to be having any problems either. Fuels good, sparks good, and no pinging. No surges, and no broken parts. The bracket my mechanic made works beautifully. To look at the top side of the car you'd think it was a factory bracket. I'm still using my '86 accessories. minus an A/C compressor. Not sure of my boost yet but whatever it is, my 350 likes it. I'll have pics soon if you care, and hopefully some info on what PSI I've got. No FMU, No T-Rex, and no BTM. I know I'm happy.

Are you sure the fuel is good with 24's? Have you hooked it up to a wideband to make sure of that? Also how much boost do you have the charger pullied for? The reason I ask is becasue in my expirience working on stangs 24's are barely enough for 302 with low boost and no FMU. On a 350 I would assume 30 lb'rs would be better if not 36's, especially with the 58mm throttle body your using. Anyway just my $.02 and I could be wrong.
