I have 2 options that will work with my OBD I ecm and I see pros/cons with both so help me decide.
I realize either option will require tuning.
Option 1: 3400 injectors (not sure what year, can prolly find out if that info is important)
Pros: Correct Spray Pattern
Adqequately Sized
Cons: Unknown Condition, they are used and I have never run them on a motor (ohm out OK)
Option 2: 1997 3.4 DOHC Injectors
Pros: I know they are good as I ran them on my 3.4 dohc
Aqeduately Sized
Cons: Spray pattern is not correct for a pushrod. Will this impact the fuel efficiency?
Will fuel hit the port walls and condense since it is not a straight shot at the valve?
Will the spray pattern have any impact on how smooth the motor idles?
I know others have used 3.4 DOHC injectors on pushrod motors before with good results. I want the LX9 to be as fuel efficient as it can and make good low end torque.
I'm currently leaning towards the DOHC injectors only because I know that they function correctly.
Last thought, will either of the sets be easier to get the tuning right?
