Fuel injector question
Guys- I'm looking to replace the injectors in my '87 L98. What are your thoughts on the best option for a direct replacement? The car is stock. I've searched the forum and it looks like many are using Bosch IIIs, but from what I'm reading tuning would be necessary and I'd prefer not to get into that (don't have the equipment, never done it before). Thanks,

I used the IIIs and no tuning was needed.

You have the best Bosch injectors, just have them cleaned.

Re: Fuel injector question
Can i ask here, please?
I have injectors from 87 vette and ECM from 91 camaro. Can be there any problems with ignitions? I have 5.0 injectors, but i think better use 87 vette, than 5.0 camaro.
What do you think?

Re: Fuel injector question
An update: Ordered the IIIs from Southbay and installed them this week. Car is running beautifully (no hesitation/stumble - my initial problem). BLMs slightly lean under load, but not more than 142. Success!

Re: Fuel injector question
So i should not need to remove my 1987 vette injectors from L98 1991 Camaro ?
I can use 87 corvette injectors on L98 Camaro 91? It is great new!
BUT... maybe you can help me... Exhaust manifolds still become red, when 2500x on "Parking" in 3-4 minutes... NO any "Check engine". Only 32, but it is my EGR, that i removed

Re: Fuel injector question
I’m not sure if you have plugged injectors causing the extreme lean condition. This guy is experiencing the same thing.

Re: Fuel injector question
Order the 3s from southbay. Go and drive, watch fuel trims, and adjust offsets and burn a new chip if needed. For me it wasn't needed.

Re: Fuel injector question
I didn’t even realize you guys offered a discount for members; I called and ordered a set (not the 3’s) from you guys this past week for my LB9. Got them in over the weekend but haven’t fired it up yet.
