LS1 fuel injectors.....

Alright, I haven't seen Ford SVO 30lb injectors for less than $200. I know with my new setup I will need bigger injectors than the stock 24lb'ers. are going with the LS1 28 lb'ers a good choice? I've seen them and LS6 injectors go for $100-$125 on ebay. Is this a nice compromise for a 375RWHP motor?

LS1 injectors are rated (and operate) at 4bar (58psi), so the flow rate in a 3bar (43.5psi) LT1 fuel system isn't going to be 28#, unless you raise your fuel pressure to 58psi.

What he said.

I know of a place that can get 39SVO injectors for $199 new.

I would like to keep the stock 43.5 (3 bar) fuel pressure. So the 30lb SVO's would probably be the best injector for the job so it sounds. I would like to keep around 70-80% duty cycle which I beleive this will be with my setup.

Please correct me if I'm wrong
