Default Ls injector in LT1

I know someone has tried this, does it work? I tried the search and couldnt come up with anything. I have a set that was given to me so not like it would cost me anything but time. They look to be a little shorter?

I've never heard of anybody running them not saying its not possible but you would need wiring adapters because the plugs are different

no one runs the LS injecters 28#@ 53psi in a LT1 24#@ 43.5 because they are smaller than 24 at the lower pressure

They will work, they just won't be to any advantage. 4 bar and 3 bar is just what they are rated at.

If you already have the injectors send them out to be resized.

My car actually has LS1 injectors right now.. They work great. The reason I got LS1 injectors was because I had a set that I got for cheap, and my old LT1 injectors were super clogged... All i did was shave the fuel rails just a tad, and placed bigger o rings on the tips of the Injectors so that they will seal right with the intake.. And ofcoarse, got a tune.. Plugs are the same.. EV1

How can this question be answered accurately?
OP did not state what version of LS; LS1, LS2, etc.
LS1 injectors rated at 28# at 4 Bar will flow right at 24# at 3 Bar and the connector is the same.
It is also unknown what the target vehicle is, 93, 97, etc.
Since injector sizes in LT1s varied from 22# to 24#, this is also important information.

I have a set of injectors set up at 280 Bar...?

Kidding aside, your looking at 6 in one hand and 1/2 dozen in the other.

ok guys it a 94 formula and 98 LS1 injectors. So i see that they will work but am i reading it right that they do pretty much the same because of the fuel pressure? Guess i should just quite being cheap and get some 30lbs injectors.

I have them in my car its been over a year,they are at the stock Lt1 fuel pressure. they do work better than my original Lt1 inj. mostly due to the fact that they are alot newer. they are alot lighter in weight.
As far as power gains i will say NO........
