Default Please clear this up...Need injector advice.

I have heard conflicting stories about the ratings for injectors over the years.

IS this info correct?

1997-1998 Corvette & F-body 28lbs
1999-2000 Corvette & F-body 26lbs
2001-2003 Corvette & F-body 28lbs

What are Z06 injectors rated at?

I have a 99 and doing a scan while racing my injectors were at %95
I need new ones before a tune but need to know which to get.
Thanks! :cheers:

If your at 95% for a short time at peak RPMs it's no problem. But if your basically stock and need to, get a set of 01-03 stockers(Z06 are the same). You can buy low mileage ones cheap. The next popular inj. are SVO 30's. Too big injectors will make it harder to lean your AFR.

I can't say if this holds true for f-bodys but:

'97-'98 28.4
'99-up 26.4
ZO6 28.2
SVO30 36.12

Looking at my parts manual, (this time with my glasses on) I see this is correct :cheers:

Put in some #30 Injectors.
They flow #36 at our fuel pressure.
I had them and was very happ with it.

You can get them from chris@speeddemonmotorsports and other forum vendors.

Hope that helps,

Michael
