Injector Question
I was just up at a friend of mines shop where they just installed new fuel injectors in a 1993 vette. He says that after he installed them the car is 100 times faster. They are the 30 pund ford injectors. I could be wrong with the number, but I am a little flustered right now, as Bank Of BS 
(America) Lost some of my money in one of their mergers.
Any way will installing the larger injectors give a car more power??? Or will it just restore what it had lost.
Thanks. I need to replace my injectors on my 85 and if this is true fact I will want to go with the better ones.

don't go there. your friend is wasting gas... and dreaming.
30lb injectors are just a sure fire way to run real fat... don't bother. If you want to do new injectors, get ford motorsport blue tops, 24lb and get an adjustable fuel pressure regulator.

Price & reliability are what make the ford's a better choice - I thought that was the weirdest thing on this forum when I first got on here - how are these corvette dudes using ford parts? Blasphemy! I, of course, have 24# Accels and have had no problems with them in 3-4 years, roughly 6K miles on them.
