question about injector size


I have a 91 lx 5.0 manual trans I would like to know what size injectors you guys think I should run. My mods are Explorer intake, bbk cai, 75mm throttle body, h-pipe and 3.73 gears., Any help would be great.

I think your Throttle body is too big for what you have - Regardless, your 19# injectors are fine for what you have. If you change your cam and heads, then you may need to step up to some 24# injectors.

Im running a 75mm T/B with my set-up, and it seems to run just fine...It came with my intake so I figured I would just throw it on. It will help though when I install my heads and cam.

The 75mm throttle body isnt too big. The 19lb/hr injectors are fine for your setup now.

So ur saying I could've originally went with the 75mm t/b and 76mm mass air , cause I hope to have my heads by this winter.But as soon as I get my rebate check I'm ordering lowering springs, 3.73's, subframe connectors, and some needed shocks and struts.

Yep. You could have left the 75mm on, and it would have been fine.
