this week im getting a cam, edelbrock intake manifold, ported TE50 heads etc in put on, in my 5ltr. I was wondering if i will need a bigger fuel pump, injectors or chip. trying to get it up around 170-180rwkw.

What model V8 Falcon are you fitting this gear too? Which cam did you get?
You may need to get a chip, really depends on how big the cam is. If its going into an E-series, you'll want to upgrade the MAF and most likely the injectors will be at their limit at 180rwkw. |

As xr8ute said, depends on how big the cam is but generally the V8 EECs can cope with most mods. Fuel pump can handle 200rwkw but its always a good idea to replace it with a decent 190 or 255l/hr Walbro one. Chances are you will need some larger injectors and a MAF to suit. The stock 19lbers will handle a max of around 180rwkw but you need to bump the fuel pressure up a fair bit with an adjustable reg to get there, and even then its not a reliable solution. IMO just do it properly with some 24lb injectors and a C&L or PMAS MAF from the US.

Getting it done to my EL Fairmont through Mick Webb. He's already got a cam for me but unsure of specs yet. so u reakon bigger injectors, might as well just ask mick while he's doin the engine. he said i might not need a chip as the factory ecu will gradually learn with all the things im changing.
