Default Brown Top, Red Top? Which injectors work?
Ive seen some brown and red top injectors from mustangs and was wondering whats compatible with an LS1 fuel rail. Im pretty sure the green tops work, right? Or is it only the newer SVO kind? Can anyone clear it up?

brown tops are normally old low impedance SVO injectors (from the turbo SVO's)

where the red tops are normally the 30's high impedance injectors called SVO for some reason.

red are 30's and woudl work for a veeeery mild turbo, green's are great and work for around 500 rwhp or so.

brown I would avoid.
