Use the following formula to estimate injector size: (Injector Size Needed in lbs/hr) = (Expected HP X 0.625) / (# of injectors) Keep in mind this is only a rough calculation. Hope this helps.

I agree....the stockers are fine for your mods. Spend the money on something else.

My previous setup made >700rwhp with a stock regulator and stock lines (12.5:1 AF ratio). So why would you replace the regulator?

Stock injectors should be fine for you as well.

The stock is the best by far. Spend those dollars other places.
