Default injectors question
i have a 92 corvette that needs injectors, i was wondering if i could just upgrade to 30 lb injectors since the car is speed density or what other mods i would have to do to get the car to run right with them. any help would be appreciated . thanks mike

Well, if you're planning on cam, headers etc. you can go with the 30#,
but until then I think you're going to need an AFPR to use them.

Stick with 24# injectors. 30's are overkill for a stock or even moderately modded LT1. Also, your computer chip would need to be reprogrammed to run the 30's.
