Which injectors to go with!

Why does the conversation always turn to what "power" a injector makes? There are so many other factors with that and it makes it sound fishy IMO.
it should be about the true process variable here and that is fuel delivery and flow.

Because it legitimately made more power. We controlled all variables on the engine dyno and did a direct A-B-A test of the injectors. Modified LT1 were on. We put on LT4 and lost power, put the modified LT1 back on and gained the power back.

Id just rather see fuel delivery. If the fuel is there then of course power can be made.

Oh I get it....There are just other questions I ask myself. Was the tune changed? Was more or less timing used? Was the fuel the same octane. Was the dyno SEA correction played with.. etc etc...

Did you recharacterize the injector data in the tune for the different injector flow or just leave it? I can see making more or less power with an injector swap if the data is off (or "more off) for one than the other, especially if it's off in a favorable way (but nevertheless incorrect).

I can't comment on availability times of products in development. Likely it will be like our LT1 modified injectors where it is an outright purchase of new injectors with no core.

Yeah honestly to me that's pretty crazy to pay $500 per injector and they still can't put down big figures...
now on if they said the injectors and pump could support 1600whp on FULL E85 then year that's legit still high but legit either way.
The market will need to push out better performing fuel componets at a more affordable price before I decide to build a 1500whp C7, then again the market may never offer an affordable fueling solution
DI is for sure a costly setup no matter how u look at it.

I'm hoping the ZR1 will have higher flow injectors and fuel pump so there will be a reasonably priced option. Who knows if and when that will be available. It would be nice not to rely on meth.
