Default SVO #30 Injectors

How much rwhp will these handle? I know at the LS1 feul pressure they are rated like #36 injectors. TIA <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Don't believe everything calculators tell you. In the case of the LS1, at least, they underestimate the power that can be made with a given set of injectors.

For example, I made 480 RWHP with 26.4 lb injectors. Now granted, this was on the ragged edge of being lean with the injectors completely maxed out (I DON'T recommend anywone running like this!) but it does give you an idea of what can be done.

It'll work. Just make sure those injectors are getting the fuel pressure.

It's according to what RPM you're talking about (the higher the RPM the less time the injector has to do it's job during each cycle) but they should handle somewhere in the neighborhood of 600 RWHP through an automatic (it WILL do it but that may be pushing it too close for some people's opinion.)
