Default Need injectors for STS 408 for 1000hp...

I'm building my SUV up with a 408 and STS T76. I'm striving for 600rwhp, but I know how I am, and want the engine capable of 1000hp. I've got the the bottom internals pretty much figured out, but which injectors should I use? I plan on using the stock LQ9 intake, and heads unless someone thinks otherwise.

Thanks

PS...2003 AWD Escalade

Get in touch with Acceleronics. Jeff is a very knowledgeable guy. You'll have to run low impedance injectors for 1000 hp with a converter box, but it's not really a huge deal to install. The 96#'ers that I bought should be good up to 1300 hp or so. 83#'ers were the same price.

I don't think he's on the site. Try acceleronics.com

I'm open to ideas. Anything that would resemble stock would be nice.

I think I'll just use the stock intake. Couldn't I just tune it through those cylinders at WOT to verify they won't run lean? If the rest are a little rich, then there shouldn't be a problem.

Correct me if I'm wrong here
