as for the big deal with the 30's, Im not buying the 225hp = 19lbs chart you guys came up with. I mean, LT1's came with 24's and stock they push out 305++ so im sure the 24's, for most people, are enough when runnin 350 hp or less. What do LS1's come with? And yes I do know they run different fuel pressure as well and the rating they have. But I would also think that an automaker would rather over inject the car than to under inject it and have it run lean.
I'm not exactly sure who your reffering to on this...
But the lt1's have 275 (93-95)- 285hp (96-97)...not the ls1 rating of 305hp (which is underated)...
The ls1's come with 28lb injectors...I believe...
The chart doesn't lie on what would be optimum if the ECU/MAF/Injectors/Fuel Pump/Fuel Pressure where to be optimized in stock trim as they are by Ford...
225hp = 19lb injectors (stock 87-93 5.0)
265hp = 24lb injectors (actual output of 93 Cobra)
300hp = 30 lb injector (if you follow the same pattern)...
330hp = 36lb injector? (average AFR/FTI combo)
These are bhp numbers not rwhp numbers...
Now again...this is not with a "home tune" with these injectors to be optimum...this is as if all the above mentioned "controls" (ECU, injectors, etc) where all installed as one and meant to work together as one as they come out of the factory...
So 30lb is not to much...it might be "slightly" argueable for someone that does a "hometune" to give that out...but if you look at the numbers of the out put of the cars you will see where I'm coming from...
I run 30lb on mine with no problem...
Besides an everynow and then idle surge but then again my computer is meant for the 19lb injector flow ratings/duty cycles and all that mess...
