Agreed 100%.

The L59 flex fuel injectors are a great "budget" OEM option to get higher flowrate. Just tell the person reflashing this so they'll know to adjust that on the tune.
When I swapped my 4.8 to a cammed 6.0 it'd run good, then not over the years. I finally got another tune(2nd tune) and this tuner told me the stock injectors were beyond maxed out, and I was lucky I didn't blow the motor up from being lean. Lesson learned--fortunately not a hard lesson learned.
