    Those won't fit the fuel rail. I sell one that replaces the stock unit.

    I also have the AN fittings for a remotely mounted AFPR setup.

    If you run your 19's @ 55 PSI (22.5 lb/hr) they will work if the engine is stock.


    the dipsticks are all the same for the gen3 engines, if you go to the yard grab a few because it's common for them to break.



    FWIW, we ran 3.4 DOHC injectors in a 3400 with a cam and ported heads with no problems. Getting ready to put them in a stock 3500 in a few weeks.


    1989 Camaro RS; Cammed 3500 swap, 45mm ITB's, Street/Strip Kitted 700R4, 3500 stall, Megashifter, 3.73 posi, EQ- LT headers, 3" Hooker Supercomp exhaust, etc...

    True they work Superdave, I believe in this situation he's better off working with what he has instead of opting for what must be at least 10 yr old technology and parts for that matter if the last production year of the 3.4 DOHC is 1996. It's tough enough discouraging Fiero swappers from switching out aluminum heads for cast iron heads on roller cam blocks.

    lol, but there is quite a difference there... iron heads are the devil, old but good injectors will still perform well as long as they are clean.


    My Sy/Ty injectors still work fine and they are 19 yrs old.

    Ben,

    If I win the $75 certificate for this month's raffle, I could then fit your adjustable FPR in my budget!

    That's good input on the 19's @ 55 PSI. I thought I read somewhere ( here on the forum ) that the stock 3400 FPR is 55 PSI.

    SuperDave,

    You had posted info on using the 19lb injectors in the 3500 Swap thread on the V6Z24 forum. Since my fuel rail was off a 2001 Malibu that had Multec 2 injectors, wouldn't the FPR be the 52~55 PSI type?

    Yes it is. 2000+ are all 55psi regulators.

    Seems like I have a 55 PSI FPR, so I'll go the modified returnless route. This will enable me to keep the 3500 fuel rail and injectors.
