Re: new to tpi injector size?

If those heads are the 225cc intake version I'm thinking that cam (looks like a Comp 503; 224/230 ) is a little on the small size to match and the TPI is going to restrict them even more
Given the < 5000 rpm TPI intake limitations ,I suspect you won't be needing anything larger than stock 22 lb injectors ; 24lb at most

Re: new to tpi injector size?

I'm in the same boat. I'm rebuilding a 355, but I've got a Comp 306 cam with 510/540 lift and 229/245 duration with a 112 LSA. I'm trying to figure out if the 22# injectors will be ok, or if I should go with the 24#? I plan on using a set of stock L98 heads that have been ported and polished, along with larger dual springs and 2.020/1.600 valves. Can anyone recommend an injector?
