Accell 24lbs injectors for 350 tpi?

I have a gm crate 350 tpi motor in my 89 T/A. The car originally had the 305 tpi engine. The car has the 305 injectors in it now. The mods i have for my car are Flowtec headers, k@n filter, airfoil. I was thinking of buying 24lbs accell injectors for my car. Will these injectors work ok with my car or should i go with the stock 22lbs injectors? I dont want to really get a prom made for my car so im hoping these injectors will work good as is. I have the 350 chip in my car also.

I'm running 24# Accel injectors on my 350 TPI (see signature).
I haven't had any injector-related problems in the 3 years I have been using them.

Hope this helps.

I'm running them on my car.
I had some leaking o-rings on the injectors so I used stock GM o-rings and I haven't had a problem since.

That was 2 years ago.

YOU GUYS ARE LUCKY. My 24# accells only lasted 4 months and shorted out filling my brand new 383 vortec tpi with fuel. i hope my bearings arent damaged.

the 24lbs should work great for you, but I might suggest getting a chip made, but that really isn't NECESSARY until you do something thats pretty drastic like a cam or somethin. You are only losing about <10hp I would say with your mods, but you would lose a lot more if you put some fairly major power-adder to the car (boost, cam, heads, etc.)

Definitely burn a chip for them or else you really won’t be getting the most out of them. I ran 24# injectors on a stock TPI (with a chip) and it was fine. I would suggest buying Ford injectors there cheaper and pretty much the same thing
