24# Injectors
 

Hi All,

Looking to get new injectors for my '85 Vette, and have heard alot of
people recommend the Ford 24# injectors over the Accels and others. Called
Summit to order, and the guy said that the rail may need to be slightly
modified, but I have never heard of this before.

Any insight?

Thanks!

No modifications are necessary. Here's where I got mine:

If that's correct I did something wrong or have a bad problem and don't know
it. I put a lubricant of some sort on the o-rings that the parts guy
recommended (maybe silicone grease, at least that'w what it looked like) and
had no problem installing them. Your ECM is going to need maybe 25 miles of
driving to "learn" the 24# injectors. It won't hurt to check fuel rail
pressure, which ought to 43 psi. A common "trick" is to increase rail
pressure by using an adjustable regulator, but the gains are minimal at best
since the ECM just "learns" the new pressure and dials back the pulse width
to keep other measured variables in tolerance.
