injectors
I recently bought a Pro-M 75mm blow through MAF and am wondering where I can purchase 36 lb injectors. FRPP doesn't sell them anymore and I haven't found any online vendors who offer them. -Phil

What type of combo are you running or do you plan to run? I ask because there have been quite a few threads lately about injectors. People are often quick to jump to bigger injectors before they are really needed.

I will be running a Vortech S-trim @ ~12 lbs of boost. I don't believe that 36 lb injectors will be too much more than my needs. That was the recommendation I've been getting from everyone here. I have everything setup to run 36's, my issue is I cannot find anywhere to purchase them.

The closest I could find were 38lbs units from Lucas at Anderson Ford Motorsport (part no. L-62 1030). Could Pro-M recalibrate the meter for you to match this flow rate?
The other thing you could do is search the classifieds for some used 36#'s or check ebay. Just some ideas. E

If 36#'rs are hard to find, buy some 42's and have the meter re-calibrated. Cause if you happen to find a set, and would need just one or something, you would be screwed.
Granted, I am running 30#'rs and a FMU

42's are too large for my application. Does anyone know why FRPP stopped making 36 lb injectors?

Steeda used to sell the 36's. New 36's are going to run more $$ than 42's. I would try to find a used set of 36's or just go with the 42's. Do you have h/c/i as well as the blower? Even if you don't, running 12#'s without a fmu, I think you'll be ok with 42's.

Steeda and Proficient Performance both carry 36#ers, but for $400.
I got a set of 42#ers I'd sell ya for like $225. I used em only upon start up, the car was NEVER driven with em. I've also got a Vortech 80 mm Maxflow Meter for the 42#ers if your interested(also used only on startup). I'll give em both up for $350, I pay shipping. Just let me know if your interested.

StangCrazy, not planning on doing heads or cam right now. I do have a gt40 lower w/ downs box upper intake though.
Stang_racer20, I am interested, seeing as how the cheapest I've found 4 accel 36 lb injectors is $370 + shipping. But would it work? If it was for your car you have a 92 and I have a 94, I have no idea if the mass would be compatible. Also, everyone talks about how so many people are going overkill on injectors. I know I won't run out of headroom w/ the 36's.

As for the overkill with injectors, I think people are just too quick jumping to bigger sizes when they are not needed. You could probably run bigger injectors and not really hurt your performance. When I speak of the overkill, I think of people just buying bigger injectors and never really having a use for them, so they are just wasting their money when their combo could be running fine on stock injectors.

Would 36# SVO ford injectors work on my car? I only ask because they came out of an LT1 383. So another question is, is there any difference between the injectors for an LT1 motor vs. Ford's 302?

IMOHO, 36# are not enough. Found out myself when I bought some, only to go to 42# later. Get the 42's and recal you meter.
Contact this guy, and tell him I sent ya: askennedy@mindspring.com

36#ers are more than enough cause his engine is basicly stock and and not stroked with Heads cam and an intake like yours.
