Default SVO green tops

Okay Ive spent months researching the subject. I have the Ford (bosch) 42# injectors. Only thing Ive accomplished was driving myself absolutely retarded. I am still not sure wether these injectors are rated at 40psi or 43.5psi. Every damn thread, even the stickies have conflicting information.

Then to top it all off, I no longer have factory 58psi fuel rail pressure due to my upgraded pump, and I cant find a valid link to a IFR scaling chart.

Any and all help would be appreciated.

Ya see, and thats the kind of BS right now that is making me want to stab things. That isnt what they are actually run at to achieve 42#, and I just want to fix my IFR table with my new motor.

Stab things if you need to bs boy here is a set that got flowed by kinsler @ 45 psi

You can bet one thing. For ford to label them as 42's they either flowed 42 on average @ 43.5 psi or @ 40 psi one or the other, judging by kinslers testing I would say 43.5 psi.

Marcin had a few sets of these flow tested to settle the flow rating argument. See here: http://redhardsupra.blogspot.com/200...-is.html#links

What Ford rates them at is of no consequence. The important fact is what they flow, period. Can't argue with actual flow figures........
