Any benefits from using LT1 injectors on an LB9?

I searched the archives and couldn't find the information that I needed. My car is fairly stock and I have a set of LT1 injectors that I got with the fuel rail earlier today. Being that I would rather use the parts then sell them, would these injectors add some power to my car if I had it properly tuned? Do the LT1 injectors pose any inherent problems with an otherwise stock LB9?

Your car will run richer.
You will not gain any power.

I had 24lb LT1 injectors on my 305.

Search under my name and there is a post on 24lb injectors on a 305tpi

I appreciate the replies, and I due to a shortage of fundage I shall part ways with my rail and injectors. I don't plan on doing a whole lot more to this car after I get it running solidly.
