Decision time - Injectors
Hey guys,
Time to order some injectors. Rather than use the ones I had in my prior build, I think I "might" want to just get some new ones. But I have a few questions. My goal is to build a reliable, fun, street motor. It's in a third gen F-Body with a T56.
  1. How accurate are most companies out of the box without verifying their stated flow rate?
  2. Need help settling on a good brand if I go that route.
  3. Are my current injectors (Bosch 280150558) worth reusing after a sonic cleaning and flow-match?
Current combo used green top (casting 280150558, rated at 42# - have seen 43.5# on some sites). My build is N/A and anticipated to stay that way for awhile. I will be verifying my prior tune with HP Tuners.
