Default BD Injectors are NOISY! Why?
I just got my LS running yesterday and the Blue Demon fuel injectors I have are clickty-clacky during operation! Is this normal? It doesn't sound like it is. The car seems to run fine.

I can't hear it in the car, but when I lift the hood, I can. At first I thought it was the rockers hitting the valve covers, but it surly is the injectors.

Help please.

Ummm should not be. What color are the injectors? Make sure you don't have over 58psi at idle.. I might want to swap them for another set as they are usually pretty quiet
