Can a Ford 19lb injector flow the same as a GM 22lb injector....

with the Ford injector running at a higher pressure? Like around 46 or so???? I will be using them in an 1989 L98 350 Camaro. I cant find any reasonally prices 22lb injectors......the cheap accel's go from 21 and skip 22 and go to 23

I think someone on here said they flow the same or a little more than a 22#. I am replacing mine with them.

Someone back me up on this.

New flow = Old flow * (New pressure / Old pressure)^0.5

That is the new flow is equal to the old flow times the square root of the new pressure to old pressure ratio.

Say I double the pressure, (60 psi/30psi)^0.5 or 2^0.5, I will only increase flow by 41%
