Will ford motor sports injectors work in my lt1?
Just curious, I've heard of people using svo ford injectors. These are out of a mustang 5.0, are the connectors and everything the same? Also I believe ford flow rates their injectors for a lower fuel pressure, what will a 30lb ford injector flow at lt1 fuel pressure?

yes, they are what everyone refers to as SVO injectors
a 30# SVO at LT1 FP should be about 32#'s which is usually more then enuf for most NA applications, they are a good injector
stock injectors out of a 5.0 are 19#'s @ ~38psi? they are about the equivelent to stock 22# injectors @ 43.5psi found in the '93 cars

Not meaning to steal your thread or anything but I wanted to add onto this. Do you have to get the computer programmed when you sawp out the injector size? Anything else needed for the sawp. i know my mustang only needed injectors and a programmed Mass-Air meter for the injector size

If you make an injector swap to the same size rating on an SVO, or a larger aftermarket one, then YES get it tuned. You wouldn't believe how much a couple PSI rating difference makes.
When I had my bolt on car tuned, I noticed the injector constant as accidentally set to 24#. Stock 93's have 22#. No wonder I was barely getting 200 MPG on the highway.
