Default fuel injectors???? matched?

I was wondering what the difference was between match injectors and unmatched injectors.
and what is the difference between hi impedence and low??

Where is everyone getting their injectors? what kind are you running? i need 60lb ones....

Matched injectors will flow within a percentage of each other. I bought a set for my C4 when I had it, which always had a hot start issue which required a lot of cranking. After the matched injectors this problem was completely eliminated. I got them from RC Engineering (they have a web site) who use the Lucas injector as their starting point. I believe the Lucas use the disc design, not the pintle, so they are faster and more accurate with fuel delivery. RC Engineering has some very good technical information on their web site.
