Injector size???????

How do I find out what the size is on my injectors?
When I bored the little 2.8 out I thought about changing the injectors but never did.Would I benefit from larger ones or would I be wasting money?
The injectors are the original fuel squirters.Besides having injector cleaner poured into the tank,they've never been cleaned.

You do not need larger injectors after engine boring, cam, or heads.. only when you increase the cubic inches a significant amount and/or raise the working engine speed a significant amount.
Examples:
Switching from a 305 to a 350 needs bigger injectors.

A built-up 350 pulling 1500 to 2000 RPMs over stock will probably need bigger injectors.

A built-up 350 that pulls within 500 RPM of stock would be fine with the same injectors.

I hope that clears this up some. Many people cause themselves a lot of grief by swapping injectors unnecessarily.
good luck
