4L stroked to 4.9

I have this engine built and before I swap into my 04 TJ I need to know what others are using for injector size and the what scanner I can use to flash the ECM for the larger injectors.


Specs:
4.0 inch stroke
.030 overbore
9.2 compression ratio (static)
Eldelbrock aluminum cylinder head
Rugged Ridge headers
505 performance stage II cam
68 mm throttle body

Five0 performance says I need 30lb injectors and a fuel pump with increased flow.

What say you? Thanks for any help.

Unless the crank's rod journals were offset ground, the stroke can't be 4". Even then, your stroker's displacement would be 4.7L (4710cc) rather than 4.9.
You're running a 49psi fuel pressure and you'll need injectors that put out about 28lb/hr at that pressure (assuming ~280 crank hp). The closest are the Bosch 0280155784 which flow 26.3lb/hr @ 43.5psi. The stock fuel pump should do fine.

Yes the crank was offset ground and i'm using H-beam rods and had to mill the block for clearance as well as making spacers for the main support. Thanks for you info on the injectors. I will attempt to find someone here in Colorado Springs that can do the tuning,
