    its better to have too much fuel to play with than not enough.. I have 19lb injectors and my setup is nowhere near yours, and according to the dyno, they're more than sufficient for now.. I have the Miller chip as well and we started with a preloaded base tune for 19lb injectors and adjusted from there.
    I'd say 19lb'ers are a no-brainer for that setup - after spending all that money on engine parts, it would be a crime to not spend a little more to fuel it properly.

    I honestly have no idea what kind of power I'm going to get out of this thing. But I'm very excited!

    I have a W.A.R. chip and I believe brody loaded it with a tune for 19lb injectors I have to plug it in and check.

    And if I am not mistaken, a stock FPR will be enough right?

    At 90% duty cycle 19lb/hr injectors are good for about 200whp pending drive-train loss, they will be fine.

    While tuning a Motronic the injectors were intermittently static with a b25, ebay headers and 272 cam.

    You will need a custom chip, really, for the tune to be correct.

    My evidence is that they aren't maxed out if the injectors are clean.

    You'll find out for certain when you have the car on the dyno for tuning. The work you've done on the engine will have slightly increased the mass flow and tuning for that combination will be necessary.

    I'm sorry but I absolutely disagree with this.
