Mild bombing - plates vs injectors

[Jeff Burke]

The torque plate principle I understand, but I am confused by the different injector sizes and what they will actually do for me. I have a '96 auto and would like to start out with a mild HP increase up to about 250. What are the pros/cons of injectors for this type of increase as far as cost and egt temps vs a plate? Gauges are in the mail, and the transmission was very recently rebuilt at Jannetty's, so I should be in good shape there. Any help in this matter would be great. #ad

Jeff,

Your OE injectors are decent sized already. I would just add a Cam plate.

Jeff:

"HEMI" is right! Try the cam plate first
and see how you like that. If that is not
enough, you may want to consider the 215
injectors. You did your transmission
already so you have made a big step there
and avoided future problems if you REALLY
start BOMBING!

Good luck!

According to Lawrence at DD, egt goes up more if you get your power from pump mods as compared to getting it from injectors. I'm considering injectors if I want more. Craig
