injectors
As I put on another post I had our guy that workes on our city vehicles swap my injectors, Now it seems as everyone is using bosh III injectors on the forum, I went with what Jon Banner from FIC said and he sent me delphi injectors. I picked up my car last night and OH my gosh it was like night and day difference so far I only went 2.5 miles.

Yes if you find out what the difference is will you post something? My car so far is running great with the delphi injectors. They were done last night and I wont be going anywhere until Fri. Then I'll have it on the interstate.

Yes I will post what the mileage is. with the old injectors I was getting about 15 mpg. But I was playing a little. Now the way the car ran on the way home it just makes you want to play at least a little. But all kidding aside I need to check the mileage and I will do that.

When I ordered the delpi injectors it was because Jon Banner from FIC said for the L98 The delphi was the way to go, He said the delphi would out last the others part way because the body is stainless steel. and with the gas today it should help a lot.
I have to go get my bose radio componets reinstalled today thats about an hour away so I will fill the gas tank check the mileage then fill it again when I get back and do the simple math. I dont trust the car for that information. I will do my best to do good driving and not play. Then again you guys know there is always some kid at a red light that will want to rev it up. I dont believe the kids do things like that because they want to race. I think its all about a corvette and the hype of corvettes being a fast car. Not knowing the difference between them. (C3,C4,C5,ect.)

Well I went 82.3 miles today and if my math is correct with the new delphi injectors I was able to get 22 mpg. The old stock injectors gave me right at 15,16 mpg
