I don't know that you'll find them that low other than used. I will say I went with Fuel Injector Connection and Jon gave a hell of a deal on my 60 lb injectors. I'd say give him a call and see what he can do for you. The other god thing about his injectors is he includes the data necessary to tune for them.

Default 42# injectors

I have heard a lot about him. So would I be bet getting the 42# version of 8.1 from him. I think he has an eBay listing about 299$ but I was wondering if they would be easy to tune or not. Just sucks. I got all this money in a new larger cam to install .Fixing to drop 850$ on a converter and still need injectors and probably a ractronix pump upgrade as well

Call and tell him what you've got. He will get you properly setup and provide the tune data necessary for the injectors you get from him. This is a huge help considering so many don't provide that information.

If I ever have to buy another set of injectors he will be the first call I make.

You should be able to get a set of used Bosch 42# injectors on here in the classifieds for about $80.

If not you can get them on ebay freshened up by vendors for $150.

These are the GM injectors installed in supercharged 3800 cars like Pontiac GTPs

I think there is a site sponsor here who can redo your stock injectors to 42# for around $160

LS3s with adapters are cheap and there is good tuning data on them.
