Yeah I went with 42lb, im not sure of the price difference between the two, but if he gets 42, he will lots of room to grow.

30s will be fine, but maybe I'm biased.

I agree it sounds fairly mild so 30`s should be fine.I dont think you need 42`s till around 500 fwhp anyway

Appears to be cam only, not ported heads. That would limit flywheel HP a bit.

Rather than guess at the injector size, try this. Multiply the expected flywheel HP by 0.07 to get the minimum recommended injector size. That factor assumes a moderately efficient tune (0.476 #/HR/HP BSFC) and a maximum duty cycle of 85%.

Example....

500 flywheel HP x 0.07 = 35 #/HR
