Re: injector size ?
Make sure you understand this:
Injectors should not be used at more than 80-85% duty cycle. However, injector rates are always specified at 100% duty cycle and some nominal pressure (usually 43.5 psi = 3 atmospheres). The manufacturer leaves it up to you to determine a system pressure and maximum duty cycle in order to compute the resulting flow.
A 22 lbs/hr injector can handle 300 horsepower, but if you are making that number you should be using at least a 24.... but not a 36.
