I use the GM injector 24508208 which is 42 lbs and had no problems tuning them via LS1edit.

I'm guessing you changed your injector flow rate with those GM 42's? Was it very hard?

Team ZR1,

What did you pay for a set of 8 injectors? I didn't know GM sold 42# injectors.

Yes I was able to tune these injectors in real nicely via LS1edit, no problems.

The part number I listed is a GM part number, they are used in the GM Grand AM Cup Corvettes, and also used in the SC 3800 V6 engines.
Not cheap, $450 for the set.
They are same design made by Bosch.

The Lucas 42# injectors are certainly VERY different in internal design than the Bosch injectors. Generally speaking, we have had MUCH better results in drivability, hot start, and performance with the Bosch injectors. They are also significantly cheaper than the Lucas price seen above due to the higher production volumes.
