ls9 cam in a few vehicles i have built, 18-19 inches of vacuum smooth idle and drive, good gas mileage and great power.

buy high Z injectors, 399 shipped for 80lb injectors from lethal performance one of the best deals around

Will those injectors work with out messing the factory pcm injector drivers up ? Lingenfelter has talked about the gt3-2 I'm not sure on the specs I think I may go with there ls9 grind for ls1 style cam gear! But I'm still open for other option !
