If I remember right they are something like a early 2000 Pontiac GXP supercharger injector. They are white and the same body style as the ones the LS1 came with stock.

that is correct, the supercharged 3800 injectors are 41.5# at 58psi rail pressure and easy to tune for

they typically sell in the classifieds here for $80-120 for a set of 8

Interesting......I never knew the 3800 SCed engines used that size......

Would those 41.5 lb injectors be plenty for my 390ci....N/A....?

Im looking for new injectors until I have to put real big ones in when I boost it later on.......

Not sure what HP level you will be at or what they support...

When my car was running it's best I was seeing high 60s-low 70s duty cycle. It was making an estimated 460-475 crank HP at the time I would say (dyno 390rwhp unlocked converter and closed cutouts). Trapped 95mph in the 1/8th in a 3700lb car.

It dynoed 400 RWHP.........but with the new heads, intake and TB......should go 450-460 RWHP. My current heads are terrible, they only flow 300cfm@.600.

I had these 42 lb injectors on my 427ci with 500 RWHP....so 41.5 pounders should be fine.

Ha, if my heads flowed over 275@.600 I would be shocked. Nearly stock just trimmed the intake valve guide boss, removed rocker boss, and sanded the ports. Exhaust has nothing but sanding rolls done to them.

Still a GM valve job, just lapped them in. 1 valve came from a different head even.
