What size injectors?? 24lb 30lbI


I have a 94 Cobra I have just installed Pro ported GT40s, Tmoss ported Cobra intake. Crane .529 .544 lift 220 226 duration, headers etc. I have a 77mm Pro-M calibrated for 30 lb injectors. Anybody think 30lbs are too big or should I use 24lb and have the meter re-calibrated?? Thanks

30lbers should be fine, and give you room to expand if you ever want to.

That is a real easy decision since you already have a 77 Pro-M calibrated for 30lb injectors. Get some 30lbers.

30 lbers are to big IMO........... I have 19's with a 75mm pro flow and they work just fine.... No need for a bigger injector on that combo....

But like HELLRAZR94 says"bigger is better" So go with some 42 lbers

This is coming from the same guy that says you can safely run 12:1 compression to its fullest potential on California reformulated shit fuel so take it with a grain of salt.

Thanks, it sounds like a split decision. Since I have a set of 24 and 30's and my mass air is calibrated for 30's, I may try them. It is not that hard to switch to 24's if 30's are too big. Thanks Dave

go with the 30`s then you can use your pro-m

plus you will have room to grow and not have to worry about jumping up high after you start making big numbers
