Default Which fuel injectors

looking for 60lb for an LS7. Seems there are some as low as $175 to thousands. Which ones do I need?

IMO either use a factory GM injector or I've had good luck with ID. Both have solid data to go along with them

Why do you need 60s? More info would help. Ls9/lsa injectors work fine and are 52-56lb depending on who you ask. Unless you're running boost or e85 those should be fine

Work for what? You haven't answer what the application or power goals is.

Yes, ls9 injectors will work for most applications, as long as they are not too small.

Yes, it is relevant. LS9 may work perfect, or be way too small.
