What injectors should I get for a H/C car? I'm looking for some new injectors since it appears my injector duty cycle is too high. I have stock 99 injectors right now. What should I get? I've heard the SVO 30# injectors are popular.

Jumping from 99 injectors to 98 is only a ~7% increase in fuel delivery
How far were you over on the injectors now?? 130% was it?
I don't wanna sound harsh, but you need to know what kinda power your making. Or you'll waste money on injectors that are still too small.
get the 30's and be done w/ it

Yeah, it was 130% at 6600rpms. 24ms PW. I don't think I am making that much power, but it does seem to indicate that 30# SVO (or 36# at our FP) will be better than 28#. But I've heard stories where the 30# SVO were too large and people couldn't use MAFT to tune them down enough. But I'm just looking to hear more about other people experiences with them. Or if there are any other choices other than those two. Thanks!

Re: What injectors should I get for a H/C car? Would the 2000 camaros injectors be ok with a H/C with around 420hp to the wheels??? I know that the 2000's are smaller than the other years.

Re: What injectors should I get for a H/C car? If they could not lean out the AFR using SVO 30's with a MAFT then they did not need the larger injectors in the 1st place since the MAFT can go as high as 35% leaner and the SVO 30s are about 30% larger then stock ones.
I use SVO's with my 6.1 liter LS1 about 480 HP at flywheel and I only had to set the MAFT for a max of 10% lean.
My worst case duty cycle is 85% and that's a full engine load.
I just began using LS1-edit and was able to tune in the SVOs very nicely and now do not even need the MAFT.
