Question on my Bombing Plans

I want your guys' help om this one, been here a long time learning, but still "scared" .

I want to end up between 400-450 with the Valet off, which should put me around 325 with it on (Close????)

Here's what I think:
First thing will be an SBC MU-13-1.25 Con OFE,
KSB1---should I wastegate it?
DV's---191's ???

Here is my biggest question, Which Injector?

I know, 370's, but since Don M quit the lower power 12v injectors (Thanks, Don ), This is my only choice isn't it?

I'm just worried that they are big smoking showerheads, which I don't want. Also worried that the wide spray angle will give me problems on my old engine due to idling, different drivers, stuff like that.

Oh Yeah, I tow about 3 times a week, sometimes heavy, but will use the Valet when I tow, and only use the big power when "Playing!---aka teaching the ricers at school a lesson in diesel. "

Please help me out or give some other options and opinions, I'm probably just thinking about it too much.

thanks,
Chris

I'm fairly happy with the 370's at this point. The smoke is easy enough to drive around with my auto, it should be even easier with a 5 speed. With my set up, I can make smoke if I want to, as long as I keep it spooled up the smoke is fairly light. If you have the money, Don M might make a set for you, but the lead time was 3-4 months last time I talked to him about them. Don actually suggested the 370's would be a better bet for where I was headed. You might also try JR Adkins, I talked to him about injectors as well. General consensus is that the 370's offer the most bang for the buck. Several guys making big numbers with the 370's.

The turbo and timing made the biggest difference in the smoke. As far as the wastegate, Harry @ PDR told me I really didn't need it.

I haven't dyno'ed yet, but I'm taking a SWAG at ~400-425HP.

Send all the ricers up my way Chris! There's several civics, a turbo'd nissan, a few 'stangs and a 3000GT running around here with their tails between their legs.

You can be my backup!

Doesn't really matter though, even if we beat them, we still don't have a wing.
