Question Injector?

Anyone know what series injectors will work on 96' LT1? I'm looking at these injectors and they say they're EVI-1. Anyone know if they're compatible with our engines? Also they're made by Siemens.

First, what is your current set up? Did you use an injector calculator to determine that you actually need upgraded injectors?

If it has a EV1 connection, likely it will work on a LT1, but you will need to tune your car for any injector size/flow that is larger/greater than stock.

As of now I have 28lb/hr injectors in a 355c.i. lt1 with a hotcam. Now I'm going solid roller, 0.600" lift, and no I have not used an inj calculator, and yes I pan on having the engine retuned for the new setup.

Try the calc and see if you are over the duty cycle for those injectors.

Fuel demand, aka power level.
