plan on trying to get my new motor in tomorrow and thursday ,., just a few questions

i need new inectors anyways but should i stick with the 19# ones or do the 24#ers ? ( motor is a 302 0.60 over with a b cam and speed pro pistons ) other than that its stock

what are some ways i can keep the motor cool ? i was thinking just do a full cooling system flush with fresh coolant and maybe putting some water wetter in it and posibly do a under drive pulley on the water pump ( car already has a 180* t stat but ill verify that again when the old motors out )
 
also heres a dumb question , im getting some emblems made up for the front fenders to get rid of the GT 5.0 ones , i see alot of BS about if a 0.60 over motor is a 310 or a 311ci , what is it lol ?
 
Use 19's if you step up to 24 you'll have to redo the Mass Air to match. Plus you don't need to step up yet. Keeping it cool shouldn't be a problem, as long as all the cooling equipment is in good working order.

Bowling's Engine Displacement Calculator
Input Parameters Are the Following:
Number of Cylinders are = 8 to 1
Piston Diameter = 4.000 Inches
Piston Oversize = 0.060 Inches
Engine Stroke = 3.000 Inches
Computation Results:
Computed Engine Displacement (CID) is 311
Computed Engine Displacement (Litres) is 5.1
Computed Engine Displacement (CC) is 5091.7
