Re: south bay injectors

Howdy Rusty, how goes the injector swap go? I have the the 1985 LB9 and want to get some new injectors, just wondering how the fit was on the Southbay. Did you have to modify anything?
Thanks

Re: south bay injectors

I just installed the 24lb injectors from Southbay. Direct fit, no modifications were necessary. I should have everything else assembled after next weekend so that will be the real test. But, so far, no fitment issues with them and the injectors came with all new o-rings.

Re: south bay injectors

Rusty/akanitro...They're nice. I love mine. Just a tad noisy though with the hood up. Solved a lot of issues getting rid of the 28 year old ones!

Re: south bay injectors

Agreed, I have them in one of mine - they click away, but work flawlessly.
