what do they usually run anyway?
Depends if there is an OEM injector that can drop in, that would be the cheapest, probably $300-400. For me, the Ford GT (not the mustang) injectors were direct swaps (cost $225) and flowed 47# at 58psi iirc, so I had Jon at FIC open them up to flow 75#'s at flex fuel pressure (42 or 44 psi iirc) for $25 an injector and change the spray pattern for a 2V engine instead of 4V, so total cost was $425.

Yeah, just talk to Jon and he might be able to open your current ones up for less than selling your current ones and buying new ones.

Ok got a few questions, can I run e85 and meth together. And also since my truck is a flex fuel how do I go about running e85 if my truck is tuned for 93. How do I go about 2 tunes. I heard that my truck has a sensor that senses the ethanol so does that mean it switches tuning tables? If that be the case I would just have to tune the e85 tables right and wouldn't matter if I switched between 93 and the e85? I'm in the same boat as others as there is only one e85 station in corpus
