4th gen injectors in a 3 gen TPI??

Will they work? I found a set locally that are cheap as far as price, and just came out of a running motor (96 Camaro ro Firebird 5.7L). I don't know if the impedance is the same, or if they will even fit, so I thought I'd ask here.

Thanks!

Cool,


The guy wants $40 bucks for them, and I need a set for a 5.7L. All I've got is a set of old 85 injectors from a Vette. The fuel rail was really varnished up. I thinkl these will be better to start with on my motor.

Scott.

check the length of the injector oring to oring the gen 4's will be a little shorter than the gen 3's if you use the clip to hold them in place you should be ok, if not just add another oring to the bottom of the injector. If you have a problem just give us a call and we will help you. 516-492-6504

I got'em for $40, and they look relativly clean, although I know they could be bad inside. I got the clips as well.

I need to get them cleaned before I put them in.
