So I found out my hanging idle in my car was due to one of my 42lb injectors slightly leaking. I pulled them all out because they are too big as it is now with my combo so I swapped to 30s I want to have them sent out to get rebuilt and flow checked who would y'all recommend?

From what i understand, there really isn't any rebuilding or even flow matching of injectors. Basically there is cleaning them, changing the screen, o rings and pintle caps.

Some companies will have tons of injectors, which they clean and test the flow of, then group them together with similar flowing injectors, that's how they get a matched set.

Not sure an injector that leaks internally is repairable.

I was going to send a set out a while ago, but after a little research i decided not to bother.

I used paradise racing, somewhere in MD to do my old 160's. The guy is impossible to get a hold of on the phone but did a decent job at a fair price, lol. https://paradiseracing.com/
