Long time reader first time poster.

Short question what are my best bet for replacing leaking injectors in my 97 camaro?
Gm?
Bosch?
Accel?
Trick flow?

if you replace your injectors with anything other than exactly what stock 24 lb injectors are, you need to tune the PCM for them

you can have your injectors rebuilt for around $10+ each

www.cruzinperformance.com is who I have used before

Yeah I was planing on just getting 24# injectors just curious if the aftermarket ones are reliable?
I work at gm and the tech's are telling me buy gm but those are 100$ a Peice! Will look into some where Canadian to rebuild.

One or more is deffienatly wide open. When I prime the system the fuel pressure drops in milliseconds.

It could be a bad fuel pump.

Get yours just rebuilt, or buy a used set of stockers on here for like 50 bucks or less.

the link I posted I know ships anywhere. I know Canada can be a PIA for packages to/from the states but still doable.

or buy a used set in FS of this forum or others

Not that other brands are "bad". Just diffrent brands, especially if diffrent #rating, require adjusted tune in PCM to work right
