if u get the nos kit maybe. it comes with an aux fuel pump thats makes the injectors spray more fuel when the shot is activated.

I love my SVO's as well. Was a nice upgrade from my 22# stockers Darn 93s lol

Delphi and Lucas make top notch injectors as well, so you can't go wrong with YoungZ28's. I think 37 might be a bit much if all you're doing is a 100shot on a stock LT1. Just my uneducated opinion.

from what I under stand 100 shot wet puts the 93/4 fuel system on the edge with its #22 injectors, I always recommend that you go wet to avoid a lean misfire or melting a piston, but again I am no expert on nos

94 got the 24# :\ I feel this is where AFPR show their use. $100~ for an AFPR instead of $200+ for a nice set of injectors (new that is). Injectors always flow less than they actually can, to keep them lasting longer. Most of us who do stuff, don't generally keep our parts very long lol Something gets upgraded, and then we end up needing more fuel etc. YoungZ28 is a good example, since I'm sure he's running around 48# now

Injectors will be fine if its the NOS kit. I ran 175 dry for about 2 years and even tried a .102 pill a few times on the stock motor and injectors with no problems. I know alot of other LT-1 guys back in the day that did the same. You must put inline pump to help the stocker or that is what will kill the motor. I dont know what other mods you have but if it is a bolt on car/stock motor you will be fine.

Just remember if you max out a set of injectors on our cars, the stock Units will lock closed. Not something you want when you're spraying a dry shot. Aftermarket units such as the SVOs will lock open

To be on the safe side I would go with bigger injectors. What is $300 or less to save your motor? just my .02

It might work but it's a bad idea IMO. The stock injectors would not supply enough fuel for the nitrous at the standard pressure level, so the NOS kit works around this by increasing the fuel pressure. The stock injectors were not designed to operate at that elevated pressure though, so it's less reliable than going with some larger aftermarket ones (svo, bosch etc) which have a better design for that.
