Fellas, I could use your opinions here about the fuel injectors I just bought for my '87 Grand National. The injectors in the car now are original, and have never been cleaned or replaced. Before start-up, I want to replace the old injectors and put in the just bought injectors now that I have some of the top engine parts apart.
These injectors are Lucas, 2-hole, green band, #5207009, which should be the 31.11#/hr, @43.5 psi/3 bar ones. They have been cleaned, flow tested, the chart shows they flow less than 1% variance. They have new rings, filters on them. They are high impedance.
My '87 GN has a gutted cat, Kenne Bell Ram air system, (the under the bumper one with turbo ram and intercooler ram) Flowmaster exhaust, solid MAF tube, stock chip as far as engine mods, that's it. Do you all think that these will work out alright just by replacing them for the old injectors? I want to save the old ones for sending out someday to be flowed and cleaned.
I got a very good price on these Lucas injectors with a 3 year warranty also. I have the pictures of the flowing machine when they were on it, and the chart that shows the variance. Since I already bought them, that's why I want to use them, just basically a replacement injector set until I get the "fast with class" bug and start modifying someday. But not anytime soon.
What do you pros think here? Will these injectors be ok for just replacements? Would I have any trouble on start-up with them? No recalibration required?
I'd appreciate your opinions on this. And thanks. :wink:
