I would contact valvegod@aol.com and get another set of '02 injectors for the hawk.. or look into some FMS injectors.

Default Switching Injectors between Years

Hey folks I have been lucky enough to purchase an 02' SS over the weekend and I was wondering if I could use the injectors that are 28# in my Hawk that has over 400 rwhp and put the 26# from the 99 in the SS. My question is how will the programming in the SS react to lower injectors. I will not drag the car, but I will road race it. Is the 26 ok in the 02 with no programming? Will the 28's help the Hawk? Please give me some insight. Thans Bear

Sounds like u think putting the 26 on the SS is a bad idea. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Assuming no tuning changes:

The 02 will become leaner and the 99 will run richer.

Leave your 02 alone and buy SVO 30lb injectors for the 99 if you want them.
