LT1 or LS1 fuel injectors

[LETZRIDE]

Car is a 1996...I will be beginning to order the parts for my cam swap very soon to the Abbott Racing N/A cam...I know it is recommended to get bigger injectors...Can I use LS1, or LT1 injectors?....I know most guys are getting LS1 injectors, but I see they have 98+ cars...not sure if it will bolt right up to my car being a 96 or what I will need to do to get them on?

ls1's will be direct swap into your 96... just need to tune for them

Re: LT1 or LS1 fuel injectors

a tune is no problem as I will be ordering HP tuners as well....I hear that the Ls1's come with different size injectors...is there a particular size I should be looking for? Car is full bolt on...installing abbott Racing NA cam...

Re: LT1 or LS1 fuel injectors

bump for a specific size? are 26lb injectors from an Ls1 okay? do I want bigger or smaller?...we have 22lb ones, I know the PSI from the fuel system from a v6 to a v8 is different, so they will probably flow less then 26lbs....

Re: LT1 or LS1 fuel injectors

LS1's also run at different fuel pressures; I'm running 28.5#'s from them, but after FP changes are really only 26 or so. I'd either get them, or go for some GTP 36# injectors. I've nearly maxed my LS1's out with bolt-ons and a GT2 cam :(

Re: LT1 or LS1 fuel injectors

are the GTP 36#'s a direct swap?...I thought you had to splice them or something...and yea I know the Fp's are different, thats why I said 26lbs is probably like 24 or 23.5 lbs on our system...

For a 96 they are a direct swap.

Re: LT1 or LS1 fuel injectors

I run 36lb injectors in my 96' , I think their more like 33-34lb after tuning for them that is what my table looks like 33 to 34, they work well. I have the VS cam and my WOT pulls only show 50-60 percent on the injectors. Gives you room to grow in the future.
