Default Motors running really lean... new cam = bigger injecters?

Well i blew my motor, and i pulled the spark plugs and its running extremly lean, I was wondering if I needed bigger injecters? im running stock ones right now.

I have an aftermarket cam, a gude cam. i plan on rebuilding it so I want to know if i should put bigger injecters in there or not. I have spare ones sitting around but they are froman h22a.

thanks

How did you blow it? Burnt a hole through the piston? You would have o be running VERY lean to have issues due to a cam swap.

You could always upgrade injectors but it does not look like you have enough upgrades to have to get them. You have another issue I believe.
