Default original injectors upgrade?

Rebuilt the engine but left the original injectors in the car.

Summit stroker kit.

Hydraulic flat lifters

175 lbs compression per cylinder.

Was wondering what everyones favorite injectors and if they will make much difference.

I was looking at 30's

86 vert 4+3


Merry Christmas

Stay with the same rated injector that you currently have in the car. IF you go to 30's, you will have to have the computer programed for this change. Talk to Jon at FIC about injectors.

86 thru 88 used 22 pound injectors. By going to a 30 you will probably be running too rich. Check with Jon at FIC. If you put in a new cam, you will have to re-tune the car anyway.
