Yes, they have a bench test for injectors. I've seen pictures and articles about it. I think AcceldZ has had it done. It checks how each one fires, and makes sure they're not clogged, and that they have a constant, uniform spray pattern.

19lb'ers, $150, sell em'

You can get 22lb'ers off of ebay for like $50US.

Sell them while you can.
Now I wish I would have parted out my 305tpi, i might have got more money for it.

Great... SOld then. Actually I am really getting the posi carrier I need for my car for trade. The guy that I get the posi from is selling them to a friend. All I want is my posi. Need the traction, this year a Cayuga Drag strip only got 1 run but I did nothing but spin 1st through 2nd. Posi should help. Thanks for you help. See...we can get along. LOL.

Thanks Keiran.

I have an article on how to make ani njector bench tester. I'll mail it to you if you're really interested.

I had 2 sets of 19's and had them cleaned and flowtested by cuisinperformance in the states for pretty cheap, like $100? He picked out the 8 that flowed the closest..were within 1.5%.

I guess I could scan that article too if more are curious...

I was actually thinking hard copy via snail mail. I'll know over the weekend for sure.

Ok guys, found the article here. It's like 20 pages and I don't have a scanner at home. It's from Performance Engineering Magazine in 1992, entitled An Electronic Fuel Injector Test Bench.

How about I snail mail it to someone who will scan it and make it available to anyone else who wants it (e-mailed)

I'm also going to look at home for an electronic copy but I think it is long gone...from a few years back.
