24lb SVO injectors??

I'm going to order some SVO injectors and was wondering if they come with everything I need. Do I need to get new o-rings or anything? Is there anything I should be aware of when swapping from my stock 22lb'ers. I've been burning proms for a couple of weeks, so I've got that end covered.

O-rings will depend on the injectors, seems the older ones had smaller o-rings on there, but the ones lately have bigger ones that will work fine. I'd order them and verify it when you get them. As for coming with everything, well its an injector with o-rings and pintle cap (though there will probably be no pintle). Other than that, the only thing you might need is the twist locks that the factory GM injectors have, although you can get those off of the old injectors on your car.

the o-rings should be fine. i bought new ones because i figured they would be a different size, but when i got them i compared the SVO o-rings with the stock ones i bought and they were the same size.

If you got the money to spend on the SVO's then great... but if you'd rather save some money go with the LT1 24lb injectors. I picked up a used set for $25 and had them cleaned and flowmatched with new screens and o-rings for only $80. They now flow better than they did brand new and I spent alot less than I would have for the SVO's .... and there really is no noticeable difference between the LT1 24lbers and the SVOs.
