Yes it will work. The 24# injectors might be a little much if you dont have a set of decent heads. There really is no need to switch over to MA until you change the cam, even then there are a few cams that work well with SD.

I still run SD and have talked to a lot of people that have good results with it.

i forgot to say that i do have b303 to go along with it. i've just heard nothing but bad stuff about sd. i had nothing but maf on all my other mustangs,this is the first car i've had with sd. so any tips or tricks would be appreciated.

If you want an good everyday strret cat that you can mod the hell out of then go mass air.You can get away with quite a few tricks as Hoss has stated with SD but for anything radical you will need a chip to get the most benefit from it.

Any of the alphabet cams will not work with SD. Crower and Comp both make good cams for SD.
