Default Intake manifold question.
Rebuilding my motor and almost done.I just received a stock intake manifold that's been ported for FREE. Question:if I do install this ported intake manifold,will I need bigger injectors now or can I get away with the stock injectors for a while?keep in mind I have about $1200 into the motor/labor so not really looking to spend more until more cash starts coming in. All input helps,thanks in advance.

Depends if Your motor is bored out. A ported intake is not going to do much. Your head beads to be ported and matched to get a gain.
