Or have the computer tuned for the 28lbs injectors. It will through the fuel curve off with the different injectors.

Stay with the 28s, your only talking like 2 lb difference and PCM will relearn and recal but best path would be to tweak the PCM injector flow table but it would run OK without tune

02 computer, and 98 injectors are within .2 # of eachother, and should compensate no problem.
