Fuel injector swap?

[88gtman]

I read in the tech section that the 3.4 engines use17lbs. fuel injectors and that the 3800s use 22lbs fuel injectors. I was wondering if it is possible to simply replace the injectors on the 3.4s with the ones from a 3800? If so will this give any horsepower gains? I ask because I figure 22lb injectors will put out more fuel which in my opinion means more fuel to combust equaling extra HP.

extra fuel is not always good (running rich is a waste of fuel)
running a good AFR will put out more power than running rich!
I doubt the injectors would work but I dont really know.

If you had more air entering the engine, then you'd want bigger injectors (if yours were maxed out)

i dont think they fit, but if they did it probably wouldn't give you any gains, not unless you have FI and you need the extra fuel so you dont lean out
