Re: 91 vette (6spd)
Well you installed injectors larger than what the car came with so the ECM has no choice but to try pulling some fuel out hence the 108 BLMs. What manufactuer are the injectors? If they're Ford SVOs then they are more like what a GM 26# injector would be like.

Re: 91 vette (6spd)
The larger injectors are honestly overkill unless you've heavily modified the car for way more horsepower. You could install a new chip with the injector contant modified to let it know what size injectors installed or install an adustable fuel pressure regulator (AFPR) to pull some fuel out across the entire band.

Re: 91 vette (6spd)
Your 91 came with 22 lb. injectors.
I installed a set of the light blue 24 lb. SVO injectors about a month ago.
Mine ran a little rich before reprogramming the EPROM.
BLMS were around 110..... it ran great.
With reprogramming they are around 126 to 130
Can't tell it runs any better.....
I bought the Ford injectors because I wasn't interested in the (sex) involved with GM or Accel injectors.
