The top injectors are the RCs at about $1400? a set but replaced mine a few months ago with a set of Accels for $600.The Accels seem to be the most popular injector.

Car running on 7 cylinders,poor idle,car dies every once in awhile.This is what mine did.I had planned on replacing them over the winter but they couldnt wait and one died so I did the job in July.My car had maybe 8500 miles when they went out.Jerrys got the gaskets you will need for the injector install.

So far the car is really strong, pulls really hard from 4K up. The engine has not miss-behaved at all. Good idle, except for a second after you let the clutch in it high idles, but I read thats a programming thing. I will call Marc H. first thing on Mon morning.

The main plan is to do the plug upgrade pretty quickly. Do the chip and see how that works. The 1-4 thing is driven me crazy, so I just keep hammering the throttle from light to light. lol Again chip will take care of that too.
