Also i found summit (down the street from me) only has injectors for $120 EACH listed for my truck... They didnt list anything for another part i searched once but the truck shared that part with the cameros and such... Are these the same injectors used on any other chevys then the truck? Gtos? Cameros? Firebirds? Impalas? Just checkin if i can find them to order for a different vehicle since there system doesnt cross over to the trucks very well...

i would look elsewhere for injectors...42 marines are on here all the time. and there are others that you could have new with good data from tuning too.

fuelinjectorconnection dot com. Talk to Jon, he will set you straight. Built a set of custom 75# injectors for me for $425.

Texas Speed will hook you up and answer some questions for you. I have the same whipple. If you ever decide to increase boost a little, buy an overdrive crank pulley (whipple no longer makes smaller pulleys for this charger=almost impossible to find). It's good for another 4 psi. As far as the injectors, i'd go with some delphi 42#'rs and a Walbro 255 in tank. The Walbro pretty much drops in the bucket in place of the stock pump, but it's slightly skinnier so I had to wedge a piece of cut radiator hose in there also to ensure a snug fit. Make sure you research how to rig your PCV system so you don't pressurize crankcase and blow out dipsticks. Let me know if you have any further questions!!

ive got a SLP underdrive... and they dont sell just the basic pulley? i dont want a ton of pressure where i gotta build the whole motor to hold it lol... and you dont think i need more up around 60's with the cammed 6.0 already? thats what most have told me already? the pump i will definitely look into...

ive got the truck for sale but i plan to keep working on it as i have it... one day ill be able to sell it though... lol... i want to build a shop...

your going to have to ditch your underdrive pulley becasue it actually will decrease boost..

^ This you want an overdrive pulley to increase boost.

You'll even get more boost out af a stock pulley vs your current one. Time to unload it.
