Default 42lb fuel injectors

I am going to be buying some 42lb fuel injectors for my motor. What do you recommend and where is a good place to buy them? Thanks

I used Lucas/Delphi flow-matched 42# injectors.

I have some Deatschwerks going in mine.

Whatever they are get them flowed and balanced.

Deatschwerks sends a flow sheet w every set

Unfortunately no. I bought them new off of a forum member 2 years ago, so I don't have the original packaging or anything. Sorry!

The SVO Greentops are usually around $200 shipped in the classifieds. Mine arent too far behind, got mine for $150 with the adapters for the EV1 connection

I would NEVER put used injectors in my engine without having them flow tested and checked out first.

It cost a dumbass acquaintance of mine TWO engines...

Looks like the Lucas are the only ones flow matched but that's $356 for a set of 8. I'm hoping to be in the market for new injectors soon, so I'll be interested in the next few posts.

I called and the guy recommended the new bosch green giants. He said its a new design and they are $51.95 so just a little over $400. On the website they have them as an ls1 injector but he said they can change the o-rings to fit the lt1 as well.
