Default What would a 36lb ford injector be rated at with ls1 fuel pressure?

here is a picture of the injector I am refering to its not the red top svo 30 these are advertised to be 36lb injectors at ford fuel pressure. I am looking for a set of injectors that will be enough to run in a stock cubed heads/cam/ fast 92/92 ls1 and be able to add a small dry shot of NOS in the future. probably like a 70-100hp shot.

those are rated at 3 bar (43.5psi) as are most injectors. LSx uses 4 bar (58psi)

So if those are 38lb @ 3 bar, they will be 43.8lb @ 4 bar.

IMHO they will be overkill for your setup. Those will support close to 600HP without blinking.

What about your blue demaon 42lb injectors? Thats next on my list. I already sent you a request for the invoice. I want an injector I can use with the set up listed above but i don't want to have to upgrade injectors later if I decide to build a 408+ inch ls motor for my car either with some nitrous on it.

The 42's will be fine for your app, those will flow 48 @ LS1 pressure.

42's will support upwards of 600HP

I'm somewhat confused tho. Did you want the Bosch Design III (pencil type) or the Blue Demon's (bosch Design II, FMS, SVO) ?
