Default fuel injectors

does onyone have any injectors they want to get rid of? I have a 5.7 in my 03 and It's looks like it is running pretty lean. I believe I need to go with the 8.1 injectors? is this correct? any help would be great.

5.7L? LS1?

Did you swap over the manifold and fuel rails and such also? If so then you have it made because you can simply use the SVO injectors. You can find them cheap. What kind of power are you making? If you are only in the 320-380 range then the stock 26.5-28lb injectors from an 98-02' LS1 will work just fine and you can get them really cheap.

Are you looking for the short MultecII injectors? If so, I am practicly in the same boat. I plan on doing my heads/cam this weekend and I am already over 100% DC with my current n/a setup. I am tring to decide between unmatched 8.1 truck inj (32#) for $250, matched for $300 or matched 8.1 marine (42#) for $400. If it wasnt for funds being low it would be a no brainer! I just dont want to get the 32's and run out of injector when I throw the dry shot back on top of it.

I am running the truck intake right now but I just got a ls1 intake and fuel rails "no injectors" but the ls1 injector plugs are different. So Is there and adapter you can get because I dont want to cut and splice into my harness? I believe the truck injectors I have are 18 pounds or so and on the vette 5.7 I know I am maxing them suckers out.... the spark plugs told me so...

I would just do the intake swap sine you are going to do it anyways, then buy a regualr injector harness from the Camaro or T/A and you'll be set. The stock injectors for the 98, 01+ Camaro will work fine for your setup at 28lbs or if you really wanna be safe you can get SVO 30lbs (36lbs at our pressure) and be totally set.

Otherwise if you buy truck style injectors now then you will have to modify the rails when you install the ones from the Vette.

Your going to have to do some Cuttin in order to get things going
There is pretty much no way around it
Other wise get some of the Multecs from Racetronixs for 400 i guess
you can find Ls1 injectors for cheap all the time
it's Only 2 wires per injector no biggie just practice some soldering <it's pretty easy>
