Default Will Racetronix 42LB Injectors work with EPS 238/246 cam and TEA 225 heads?

Anybody using these? Will they support my build? They are listed as "Racetronix 42LB High Impedence Fuel Injectors (Flow Matched)" and priced $330. How do these compare performance wise to the FAST and other brands???

thanks

I can't speak for how they compare, but 42 # injectors will more than cover you.

I got the white GM supercharged 3800 injectors. Cheap but effective.

They will work fine, but you don't need that big of an injector.

I had issues with the racetronics when trying to tune. bank to bank was off by 13%. Swapped to a set of SVO 39# right there on the dyno and the bank to bank was 1%. The SVO's worked fine for me and I am making 465 RWHP in 100 deg shop air.

make sure your ECM is tuned for those injectors before fire up.
