What supercharger kit are you getting? 8.1 marine injectors should plug right in.

I'm running 6.6 lbs boost on my Radix and using my flex fuel injectors and stock fuel pump with no problem. Magnuson sells their flex fuel kit without injectors or fuel pump as they are both higher capacity for flex fuel application. I believe the FF injectors are 38 lb. rated. Magnuson customer service is first rate and you could call and ask them how much boost a FF engine (injectors and fuel pump) will handle. Also FF engines run at lower fuel press. than stock engines. 48~54 lbs with key turned on with a drop of 4~10 PSI at idle is acceptable according to my GM service manual. They list 55~62 PSI for a stock engine fuel system with key in ignition and turned on. For comparison, My truck is 50 psi with key turned on and 48 psi at idle.
