Are 95 LT1 Caprice injectors 24#?

I was wondering anyone knew if 95 LT1 Caprices came with 24# injectors?

They should be.... the LT1 called for 24# injectors to feed it properly.... so the caprice shouldn't be any different. Only thing different in a CAprice LT1 vs an F-Body LT1 vs. Y-Body LT1 should be exhaust and the mounting of the accessories (alternator, etc).

To the best of my knowledge all LT1s got 24lb injectors. The 4.3 V8 with "LT1" intake uses different injectors.

The Caprice LT1 is the baby LT1. It may come with 22's.

No, I don't believe the Caprice LT1 is the "baby" LT1 just because it's not in a Camaro/Firebird/Corvette. The 4.3 V8 is a "baby" LT1, but the 5.7 in the Caprice/Impala/Roadmaster/etc is not necessarily a baby LT1.

An LT1 is an LT1 is an LT1.

The only difference, as previously stated, is the exhaust and the places in which the accessories mount.

True, but the intake on the 5.7 LT1 motor is also used on the 4.3 V8 Caprice motor. The intake is absolutely exactly the same except for the injectors.

It is a 5.7L LT1. So I assume they are 24# injectors then.

you could always have them flow tested (and cleaned while you're at it)

if i were in your shoes, i'd make the assumption they were 24lb/hr
