Ok swapping in an lq4 truck motor and using L92 heads, LS3 intake etc.
the intake came with new LS3 injectors which are rated AFAIK 36lb @ 3bar.
I have had a set of 42lb green tops (@ 3bar) in the ls1.
is the leap in technology from the ls3 injectors to the 42lb injectors big?
is the 6.5lb/hr difference for the 42lb'ers that big of a deal?
now I know with ls1 style injector I would need the different o-rings and spacers.
with the ls3 injectors all I would need is the plug adapter correct? If so what sponsor makes one?

i, too, have the ls6 intake and am wanting to change injectors. currently, i have the 42 lucas (delphi, or whatever they are called).
i would like to get some 42#s or close, so long as they fit my intake. i am up for suggestions.
thanks!
