Tunning for 37# lucas injectors?

Hello guy's! I am putting some 37# injectors in a 95 LT1. Could someone tell me how to figure out what to put in the Display injector flow rate GL/HR under the constants tables of Tunnercat? I see nothing on the spec sheet for a GL/HR rate.
I'll put 37 in the flow rate but then just under the flow rate there is a constant for Display injector flow rate GL/HR. Does anyone know what I am talking about? Thanks, Ray

If you don't have a vette I don't think that's used.

Regardless, just increase the display rate by the same % that you are increasing the flow rate by (i.e., multiply by something like 37/24)

Gday Steve! Let me make sure Ive got this correct.


Ive got 4.25GL/HR now, so I take 37 divided by 24 = 1.54. Then add 1.54 to 4.25 = 5.79. Is this correct? My math just isn't what it used to be.

If your old injector constant was 24 and the new one is going to be 37, and your old display constant was 4.25, then the new one would be (4.25)*(37/24)

Your old one wasn't 24, though, and your new one once you tune it won't be 37, so substitute accordingly.

OK' I would mutiply 4.25 by 1.54, would give me 6.54. Thanks

And no my old injectors weren't 24 they were set higher.

Now I need to start working on the VE and MAF tables.
