Default Cost effective injectors?

Pretty sure with the ported 799s and a different cam I will need to upgrade from my 28# stock injectors.

I was thinking of using the cobra injectors but now I'm reading about how they don't work properly.

What is another good budget option? I really don't have $$$$ to buy high dollar new injectors.

Blue Giant 03/04 Cobra injectors

since they are 4v they supposedly have a weird spray pattern that makes tuning them more difficult, and apparently they require adapters to use anyway

I am unfamiliar with them, I'll look into it. That's exactly the kind of info I was looking for.

Are they plug and play? No adapters or any issues? I'm running a stock fuel rail and a Fast 90mm if that makes a difference at all.

What about stock ls7 injectors? They support ~580-600rwhp without issues. If not 60lb SDs are a decent deal for around $400.

Looking to spend $200 or less. The resizing program would be a good deal but I can't go without my stockers for long enough to send them in right now, maybe later if I don't come up with something.

We have new, flow-match injectors for your LS1 from 35# up to 50# for $459/set of 8.

Drop-in fitment, no spacers or adaptors for the rail required.

"bosch 36"

"bosch 41.5"

"bosch buick injectors"

"bosch III"

They are bright white and easy to spot when scrolling through the results.

The same guy started a new auction as soon as mine was over I think, from CA. He shipped same day. If you want I will update this thread once I receive and install them.

sounds like a lot of trouble if possible issue. money sucks, but I would have just either been without or bought a new set and had no worries and spent some extra dough. Glad you were able to find some that would work for cheap though.
