Bosch ev14 72lb, uscar connection, standard length 48mm. These are a direct fit/plug and play for your truck. These are what I'm running, seem to be more than fine in my setup. I'm running 8-9lbs of boost on 91 octane and my injector duty cycle is around 60%

FIC uses stock Bosch ev14 injectors and modifies them to higher cc for all the later model ls stuff. Great Injectors and I'm sure they come with data from FIC.

You're running the 1000cc on your pro charged setup George?

That's Good to know! A few people thought it was a bad idea to run the 1000cc injectors on my motor, for drivability issues.
