Why do you think the injector/s are bad? There are a few ways to check them. They should read right around 14.2 ohms (took a reading on my 02 Z06 10 minutes ago) When the engine is running you should be able to take a long screwdriver and place the blade end on the injector body and the plastic end on your ear hole area and hear the injector click each time it fires. As you have someone rev the engine, the clicking should increase as rpm goes up. Each injector should sound the same. The injector firing noise should be a nice crisp click sound.

Injectors can leak or plug up. Remove the fuel rail with the injectors installed and pressureize the system. You should not see any leaks.

If your brave, you can stick each injector in a paper cup and crank the engine and watch each one spray! Not advisable but I have done it! If the spray pattern is messed up, you will see it.

My bet, the injectors are good!

Bad joke, yes.
Actually, I think the original ones were first introduced in Germany by Dr. J. Mengele in the late 30's. (I can make that joke, being a member of the "tribe." )

The UZI 160lb injectors are awesome, not only will your car be fast it will fire 1000 rounds per minute.

not always. once someone responds to your thread, I don't think you can edit the main subject title.
