IIRC last I knew mark was running stock 3.0 injectors. I will have a set of
3.2 injectors that were cleaned, balanced, and have only been run 6k since
their install. Should have them off the car in a week. With the tweecer and
tuning of injector slopes it was easy to make sure the slightly higer flow
injectors were just right.

I have a set of 30# accels that I want to throw into the car, as per eec
analyzer in theory I should be closing in on the injector's upper end, and
if the SHOshop headers make good numbers and I add them I'm gonna want the
buffer in the % of use.

Sweet-any adjustable sprocket settings that you recommend for the street?

What injectors are you using?
