The SRT6 injectors are going to be WAY TOO BIG.

When I was working with FoMoCo 4.6 SOHC "Mod-Motors" Stock injectors were 17 lbs./Hr. Upgrade injectors for better head/intake/cam/exhaust combos were typically 24 lbs./Hr. SUPERCHARGED applications went with 30 or 36 lbs./Hr units.

So here's what I think we need; An OEM Mercedes/Bosch injector rated @ 22-24 lbs./Hr!!!

With the widely used Bosch/Speed Innovations/Upsolute/Powerchip ECU download "flash", a lower restriction exhaust and 10-15% more fuel delivery under WOT conditions we might expect to see 245-250 Horsepower.

Now THAT would be nice !

Don't forget about the upgrade cams, they say they make another 20 hp, but it's not totally confirmed by dyno. Then you can throw on a larger airbox from the v8 benz.
then some underdrive pulleys, good for 3-8 hp gain.
