Thinking of putting 30# ford racing injectors in a 99 h/c car, what do they really flow? And are there better injectors I should consider?

 

They flow about 36 lb at LS1 pressure. They're very good injectors and would serve you well.

Lucas makes even better injectors if you really want top of the line.

 

Thanks,
that's what I thought until somone told me 27.x. He must be thinking of regular fords or something, the . in 27.x gave it more credibility

 

Ford rates their injectors at 43.5 psi. The LS1 runs at 58-62 psi. At this higher pressure the Ford injectors will put out quite a bit more than what they're rated for.

Thought Bosch (GM, SVO) was the preferred injector.

 

I never said Lucas were the preferred injector (they'r not exactly cheap.) I just said they're better. There is nothing at all wrong with those other injectors. Lucas uses a different type of tip that is said to have just a little better spray pattern. Would you ever be able to tell a difference? No. Why do I use them then? Because with a NA 9 second car that's aspiring to be an NA 8 second car I'm pretty **** about everything! <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />

I got mine from a place that is no longer a sponsor here...now what was their name? Without their banner in front of my face all day long I just can't seem to remember their name. I'd start calling sponsors until I found one that carries them. I wonder if Scroggin Dickey Performance Chevrolet carries them?
