Injectors, fuel plate question
Guys,
I have a 97 with the P7100 pump bone stock truck. I went to Pensacola Injector yesterday and priced a 100HP set of injectors and they are $199. Not bad
Question is if I add the injectors should I change the fuel plate Adjust the afc, and pump? Also going to add the boost elbow. I see different write ups on this stuff but not all together like this. Thanks for the help! Before I get flamed I did read on here the little role play the fuel plate has in the performance, It is just included in one of the kits I was looking at!

Should I grind the plate first before sliding the plate, and afc adj.
Get you a boost gauge and EGT to watch those temps.. As for grinding your plate.. you may not end up with a good curve - sometimes it's best to buy one if you get a good deal on it.. that way you can always change the plate out.. if ya screw up the grinding job, well you're stuck with that plate. Anyway, the 100hp injectors, #0 plate full forward with 191 DV's.. My buddy's 97 was running HOT (boost elbow too). Smoked like crazy, and was pretty quick.. but he found out he needed a turbo.. he was peggin out the pyro easily with that setup. Plan out what you want your HP goals to be, then start finding out what you're gonna need to get there. For example, if you add too much HP, you're gonna need an upgraded clutch (double disk at least), or if you've got an auto some other upgrades to it. Just somethin to think about.. 
I did search with no results, but any of you used the Power kit from TST with the #10 fuel plate? It claims 33HP and 750 LB torque. Is it worth the buck, and have any of you seen these type of results.
