I am upping the fuel pressure and tuning it with my Autoprom. I actually have a Walbro 255 sitting around waiting for my EFI conversion on the Camaro that I could use. From what I have read, the stock fuel injectors still work well up to about 25psi...which would be about double the lb/hr they are now. Granted I haven't actually done this yet, but I don't see it being a big problem and should be fine. I guess we shall see.
A stock Vortec 350 is rated at 255hp, and my engine will have more cam, more compression, headers and a more traditional intake. I know it will be over 250.
Good boy.
You should be able to get it tuned fairly decently, until you get bored and switch to MPFI and an 0411 PCM. :read: I would suggest sourcing a 7.4L throttle body because they flow much better, and you'll have finer control with smaller injectors at higher psi. (the 7.4L injectors ran at 28-30psi stock) When I was still fairly into tuning TBI stuff, I switched philosophy on that and it made a world of difference. It's easy to tune cruise and WOT logic, but part throttle acceleration and off idle gain are things that take a little time. Any plans to convert to MAF, or stick with SD? I wound up sticking with SD because I had a little better control over lean cruise.
Just my opinion, but I would gone with a different cam choice. I know the b-body LT1 cam and GenII Vortec cam are nearly identical, but what small differences there are don't necessarily add up to more power. Everyone and their brother throws an LT4 hotcam into these things, for good reason. They're cheap and lots of info about how to tune them. New valvesprings are cheap, and you don't even have to machine the heads if you don't want to. (If you run LS6 springs and ditch the umbrella seals)
