What is the horsepower rating for 320 Ib/hr injectors
Never seen any such thing though. I'm having a hard time imagining it. Seems as though it would be alot like the spray end on a garden hose. Care to elaborate?

.....unless he meant that as the flow rating for an entire set... OR he slipped an erroneous zero on a 32# injector......
Can't fathom 320# injectors, unless it's a big pressure washer nozzle.... LOL

Maybe he's got a boosted pressure washer, since when I asked him "on a boosted..... what?" I got answered by another question. .

thats almost equivalent to what i found on fuel tech, but at 90psi. Flow is flow, the injectors will support up X amount of hp depending on your set up. Now, how long those Boschs last, i dont know, but that wasnt your question. Fueltech's calculator shows that at 90% duty cycle, 8 320lb injectors will support ~3900HP with a turbo

OK, Yoji, just for entertainment's sake let's say you ARE actually using 320# injectors that will support 3900HP.
How much power are you actually dealing with here? What is the setup?

The operating pressure for the LS3 / LS7 is 58 PSI.
What ECU are you going to be using that will allow you to tune the engine while using 101 PSI of fuel pressure?
And, I have never heard of anyone using an injector capable of 320 Lb/Hr flow on an LS based engine.
Where did you get this idea from anyway ?
