SVO injectors - get them at Ford Motorsports or where?

Still debating over the Accel injectors or the SVO's............when I read the price for the SVO's was $155 for a set of 8 kinda got my attention. Where did you guys get your SVO's?

You can get them from Summit (www.summitracing.com) but I personally like the new Accel injectors better.

The newer Ford injectors look like they changed to ball type, they have a plate w/ holes machined in it at the base. The pintle-type are my personal preference...they tolerate higher operating pressures better according to the press.

The other nice thing about Accels, other than being pintle-type, is that they're flow rated at 3 bar same as GM does. Ford does their flow rating at ~39psi which means their 24lb/hr is really more like 26lb/hr at 43+ psi which TPI operates at. Accel says theirs are flow-matched to within 1% as delivered...pretty nice.

Accels are also available at Summit, prices are within ~$20 of the Fords.

don't buy you injectors through the FMS catalog, that is all I can say, they want like 350 from the catalog, when U can get them very cheap at other places.

I typically buy used from eBay and then have them cleaned/flowmatched.
