why 750cc injectors? Aren't you going for a light set-up?

where do you want to go? Alle the answers usually are in the target you have. I don't know much about injectors and their duty cycles but with a light set up you might not max'em out.

Send me your throttle body to port/polish. It'll add some spunk to the car.

for anything over 300-rwhp you want larger than stock injectors.

What fuel pump did you get?

I don't know if you picked up injectors yet, but look into KG Parts.

I had my 2 480's upflowed to 880's and the 2 280 cleaned for close to $100.
Much better deal than spending $120-$170 for a single injector.

Yes they are good but be careful of the fuel rails. On occasion they've been known not to fit the advertised application.
