I dont know the colors, but there is a chart somewhere that tells you what the injectors are by the color of the cap. Not sure how you would tell what he meter is set for though.

Vibration: Is it possible you have mismatching Crank/Fly/Balancer weights. 28oz Vs 50oz?

Red is 30lbs. I have them...they are sold by FRPP (Ford), they aren't a "stock fuel injector". Stock are the yellow/brownish looking injectors that are 19lbs.

T.J., who's car did ya'll install this in? Who did the machine work and bottomend assembly?

What is the fuel pressure set at? Timing? What is the rest of the combo (h/c/i)...? Any brand name on the maf? What is the # shown on the MAF?

The stock 19# maf won't be to good with the 30lb injectors?

Was it balanced? Yeah, a stock flywheel won't work unless it is setup that way from the person who machined and assembled the bottomend. It is 50 oz, most are "setup" for 28 oz. imbalance.

I'll be seeing ya'll in town soon...

well it is dlyan car i dont know if you have meet him, but had the injecters checked out at colgswell(our local dealer) and they said that they came oout of a 91 couger so thats why we are kinda unsure of what they are. the fuel pressure is set at 40 at a idle. the mass air is stock but ill get back with you on the # he said that he ordered it to be balance to 50 but i dont think they did it I am ready to see your car run
