So I bought a new long block and didn't put new injectors in it. I believe we have one bad injector and the rest are tired. Boat mechanic buddy did quick night run with me and things I'm onto something with the old injectors. Although we are going todo a compression test next week due to the intermittent behavior that cylinder has we believe the issue are the old injectors vs a bad valve or such. Spark is good.
Here is what I need...
Not going to buy OEM Volvo Penta injectors due to price. I've been told by my mechanic buddy that he believes OEM GM big block injectors for the 7.4L injector (L29) should be interchangeable but having trouble crossing referencing this.
I see some people stating 19lbs, 20lbs, 24lbs and even 30lbs which I assume is high performance...can anyone confirm the need and/or if the GM style for trucks will do?
1997 Vortex (Roller cam) 7.4L fuel injected. L29 engine
Long block was rates at approx,. 330-340HP.
