Go with the 24lbs. Call Jon at FIC, he can hook you up with a set of Bosch Design 3 with modified bases to fit the TPI. I know he offers them because I asked him when I was buying mine, but decided to go with the 22s for my application.
And yes, you will need to get it tuned.

ya they will fit, but some people say you need to buy the gm o-rings for the injector to get them to seal right, i used the ford o-rings that came with mine on 3 differerent camaros and never had a problem, but others had different experiences, just something to think/search about.

if i ever decide to go with a higher lift cam(around 560/570)...would the 24lbs be ok?

ya they will be fine, but you will need to tune it again. im surprised you went with such a small duration cam with using the holley stealth ram intake.

24# injectors will feed over 400 flywheel HP on a TPI engine.
