Default Where to find truck fuel injectors?

I have been trying to find fuel injectors for my truck at a good price and keep falling short. Right now I have the same old Ford Motorsports 32#ers in and i want some larger ones, but the only ones i find are the 44# ones from Delphi.

Anyone have any good info or a link to more injector options?

Something between 34# and 44#. I just want to find more options than 44#. If i can get 38# for $100 less than 44# thats what i'll get.

These aren't stubbies Delphi 37s, but the fuel rail conversion for taller injectors is bone simple. I didn't even have to bend my cross over pipe as was shown in the write up (XLR8n's).

Those 37s are about 120 less than the 44s but will cost you a little fab time and $15 for new plugs.

Thanks for the help.

I know about shimming the rail to lift it up, but what about the new plugs? I havent seen the write-up on it. Those 37# injectors run at 43# with our 58psi fuel pressure, so they will support alot of power.

As far as I know Ford never had 32lbers. They had 30, 36 and 42's. I run the FMS 42's in both my trucks-you can pick up a set on E-bay pretty reasonable and they are feeding my truck at the power levels in my sig.

if you dont mind modding the fuel rails, you can get injectors for pretty cheap... otherwise, go with the marine Multech 43lb'ers from racetronix or Arizona speed and Marine. for under 400 after shipping

The plugs are MSD 2400 adaptor plugs

It's just a matter of soldering the wires.

Here's the
write up. I did everything there but when I was fitting everthing I left the cross over tube installed and bolted down the driver's side first (with the fuel line connectors) and then noticed that the passenger side was not far off. I just carefully pulled the passenger side into position and slipped the injectors into place.

BTW, I used 4 5/8" aluminum tubing just as the write up suggested but used (1) 6mm*1.0mm x 40mm stainless bolt, and (3) 6mm*1.0mm x 30mm stainless bolts. The 40mm bolt was used to clear the plate the is used to mount the fuel line connectors, but I could probably have used a 30mm there as well. I also used a flat washer + a lock washer on each.
