- Electromotive (makers of an aftermarket ECU) sells injectors in a wide
- variety of flow capacities for about $30 ea last time I checked.
- They probably will also probably know what the Z uses.
-
- You could either compute the maxiumum flow or get a free sample of
- my magazine (see my .sig) and use the feature article to construct
- a very inexpensive (<$100) flowbench where you can actually flow test
- your injectors.
-
- My guess is those are probably 40 lb/hr injectors based on what I've
- used on turbocharged 280Z engines I've built.
