Default Doing a little injector homework...

Just recently swapped head from stock 5.3's to Patriot Performance 60cc. Flaco mentioned that my stock injectors are running at full capacity, and I'm leaning towards upgrading.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks ... Lisa

The drop in 43lbers would be a good move for you. They'll support up to ~500hp. Injector tables are published and you're good to go

Is there any one specific brand better than the other, or one more cost effective?

Like the rest of the guys said. You will want to go with the marine delphi injectors.. They are 44lb ones and will be plenty for what your doing with the truck.. Even the delphi 42lbers will work, but the 44's are worth the extra money... And they all(delphi) are plug in play
