Default Fueling for 400BHP

Hi,
As title really. I'll be sourcing some 740cc injectors for my 2.1 (once built). Apart from changing the fuel pump, what else would I need?
Thanks

Aren't they top feed? I'm looking for side feed.
By parallel fuel set up do you mean braided lines from the fuel filter to billet rails?

Mine has just what you have suggested, plus an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator and a gauge for fuel pressure.

I ran 400+ on a set of 550s. Just a walbro and a set of injectors.

Gone uprated walbro and parallel fuel rail and 900 cc injectorsfor my 2.1 and MDX321T methanol map though. At a later date il be fitting a swirl pot and Bosch 044.

I read somewhere, I can't remember where, that above 740cc injectors seemed to cause tick over issues?.

What fuel filters do you guys recommend?

good quality injectors shouldn't cause idle issues..

550cc don't always flow enough for 400.. sometimes do, more often don't.
