Default Fuel Injector replacement

Can anyone give me some advice on replacing the fuel injectors on my 1996 LT-1. What injectors should I get? Are they hard to change? Waiting for your great advice. Thanks, Ed

I bought SVO blue top 24lb injectors from Blue Oval Industries on Ebay. $200 for a set of 8. I've had them in my LT1 for 6 months and they are doing great.

The LT1 FI set up makes it very easy to change the injectors...once you unbolt the fuel rail from the intake manifold plenum,it will pull off and you can change the injectors that way...thats how I remember it..was much much easier than say an L98 or etc.

After you have purchased the Ford 24# injectors, go to www.c4guru.com for instructions on "how to". Andy Bogus knows his beans.

Why do you have to replace your injectors? You may want to consider www.witchhunter.com. I was told I had to replace two leaking injectors. I shipped all 8 of them to witchhunter, they inspected, cleaned, and reconditioned all of them. They also sent me a before and after report. I installed them in my '94 and the engine has new life. This all took one week. As far as r&ring them, it's pretty effortless. Hope this helps.
