Replace injectors in 95 LT1
OK, I know there are a gazillion posts on this stuff. But for the record, what is the preferred replacement injectors for a stock LT1 300 HP engine?

There is no simple answer. Stock injectors are the obvious choice, but they're way overpriced ($100 or more EACH!).
Lots of people use the FMS 24# injectors, but your'e actually flowing around 25-26# because the chevy fuel pressure is higher.
I've heard a few people swear by the Accel injectors, but I've also heard others say they're junk.
All I can say is that I run Ford injectors and they're fine. Although I did have 2 that were stuck out-of-the-box, so regardless of what you choose get them tested before you put them in.

You'll probably get a couple of answers on this one. Most people guided me toward the ford SVO 24lb racing injectors. I believe they were cheaper than the Delco's. Plus I was told that they would handle my N20 system better than the stock injectors. But now I am wondering if I should have gone a little higher in flow with an AFPR for future upgrades.

I think the Ford injectors handle higher pressure better because they are "pintle" type injectors -- plus, they are cheaper.
But, I like the OEM disc type because I think they resist clogging better -- not cheap though.
