80 lb injectors seems a bit overkill for a ported Eaton. 60's should provide better resolution to the injector map making it easier to tune especially at low rpm's.
thank u and um the injectors i read some were that 60s max out at 600 some one told me i should make more than that,,,how much power do u believe ill make?
also if provided at 3000lbs u think it could break 9s?

thanks again
Damn dude learn how to use punctuation!!!! Anyway, 60's should be fine for that combo. Even with all that porting and your build I don't think you will see 600 rwhp especially thru an auto. Will it go 9's? Who knows. H/c/i blower fox bodies properly built run 10's making mid 400's for rwhp. There is a large debate over heat exchangers and if upgrading really works.
Check out the eaton swap thread in the New Edge forum. That details all parts you need and I think has links to a few build threads on other forums. The threads have pics as the build goes along and also some good diagrams for things like IAT2 wiring and vaccuum nose routing. Even with the auto I think your gears may be a little steep. I don't know anyone with an eaton that runs a 4.56. Remember this a PD blower, you hit the gas and the boost is right there. That combined with 4.56 may just spin the tires. I would try to figure out what tire size you are gonna run at the track and then compare it to the rest of the car and see what gear is optimal for you.
The mark8 cams are the least lift and duration. I checked the lift on some mark8 cams and they were only about 380 lift and about 180 duration.
oh wow thanks guys...sorry rob i wrote it fast lol but um i heard the mark 8 cams were good and i heard since i was running a overdrive transmission ill need steeper gear... either way its not put together yet im gonna start on my rear soon...thank u for the help guys very much appriciated.
