Flywheel HP * .55 /.8 /8 = recommended injector size.

If your 1200HP is flywheel, then you need an approx 103# injector.
Feel free to call if I can help you out on a set for your application.

You didn't take into account fuel type?

I take into account the info that I have.
That was for gasoline.

If it was for E85, they should have said so....

Lonnie buddy what do you think I need? I don't know how much power the car is making but it weighs 3600-3650lbs and run's 8.8-8.9's at 160 and some change.

My SMP 120's are showing 110%DC with meth. I don't think there working to well, Mightymouse here found his 120's to be overated and found his 96's actually flowed more.

When I was running 9.0@155 i was hitting 84%DC with the 95's.

I have an F1X coming to replace my YSi and i'm hoping to run mid's@165+.

I'm still waiting on that paypal to get another pump!

BTW-my car runs faster on the fat side-hi 10's AFR.

EB02Z06.... call me when you get a chance, I'll help you get what youy need.
I just got your pumps in...


chevy1220... call me to discuss. If you get too big, you will lose idle quality. We should discuss things in more detail to be sure you get exactly what you need.
