Cheap Ford 160lb injectors for LPG cars vs other 160lb injectors Okay so a friend of mine told me that ford has a 160lb low impedance injector they run in the crown vic and grand marquis cars. I read online that alot of DSM guys run these injectors in alcohol/e85 setups as they are compatible. I also read that you can pickup a set of used ones for $300. So what's the disadvantage over those vs a $700 set of almost the same thing?

OR do you have anything else that would be suitable in a high impedance injector and in the $600 range? Or if not high impedance something low impedance in the $400-500 range?
Please PM me any options you may have.... I'm not generally in this forum.
Thanks!

Can you tell me whether or not the Acceleronics - Versa Fueler is an adequate driver for these injectors (Ford units)... I'm looking for an affordable way to support 1000rwhp on E85 and the new high impedance ones you offer just don't fit my budget foreseeable future.

On a four banger that may be true but I know a LOT of Ford guys have used these without issue. It used to be that this injector was the only "big daddy" injector offered by Ford Racing which of course is also the CNG injector for Crown Vic's.
On any modern V8 and with the right driver they are absolutely driveable and a valid injector for a big power daily driver.... My concern is with what he said about the driver. Not sure what the versa fueler runs at as far as ohms/impedance.
I do know that the driver is all that matters when it comes to whether or not you can make these injectors play nice with your setup. The Honda guys love em and have used em for years on big power turbo cars. Ford's with a MAF based tune do not like them but standalone setups don't show much bad behavior.
