cam swap with a few q's

I am going to do cc306 with LE1 heads. I have midwest 2800 stall, 3.73's, mac mids, loudmouth, moroso intake. Do i HAVE to get new injectors and throttle body or will the stock ones be fine? Just just dont have $300 for tb and another $300 for injectors. Can i get these cheaper anywhere else? Also i have a set of bfg dr what can i expect to run? LOW 12's possible on a good day a high 11??? THANKS!

I'd say you need to get the injectors, but the throttle body can wait if you dont have the money for it. Also mjblum on ebay does excellent work with boring out stock throttle bodys to 52mm for pretty cheap, so you should check him out.

You definitely need some injectors. I was running 92% duty cycle on the stock injectors with homeported heads and a HOTcam. LE heads and the 306 are definitely more than the stockers can take, unless you want to raise the fuel pressure. I think raising the fuel pressire is kind of like putting a band-aid on a bullet wound though.
