E34 Injector question

[silversleeper]

I searched all over the web for this info and came up clueless. What are the stock E34 535i injectors? And what would be a good upgrade for that particular car? The same design III 4 pintle 19lbs injectors i ordered for my E30? Will they pop right in as well, or do I need another type?

ok the E34 535i uses 19lb injectors stock, There are 2 different brands used, Bosch and Lucas, The bosch units are a lot better. So a good upgrade would be some 24lb mustang injectors, or maybe not something that large.

[silversleeper]

perhaps 22 lbs? I plan on MarkDing the ol' 5er. Not that the chip will provide that much HP to the point that I would need new injectors, I think, but I need to replace em anyways, so why not go a lil bigger. I just want to know what a reasonable size would me.

Also, where did you find that stock spec info at?

I've had 2 sets of the 3.5 injectors, one brand new and had set I had flow tested. the 318is also use the same injectors

so the 19lbs injectors from the e34 535i would be fine right? on a lightly modded e30 i think 24lbs would be a little overkill wouldn't it??

over kill are 24lb injectors in an eta:rofl: It's dumping gas right out the exhuast:blowup:

[nefarious7907]

not thats its topic related but are the windows in your injector clips supposed to go over the lip on the fuel rail? I have the clips attached where they are supposed to go on the injetors and the fuel rail is bolted down securely but I didnt think that it looked right and I dont want an engine fire or anything if I try and start my car.

[E30/M30]

The slit in the injector clips are suposed to fit in/on the lip on the fuel rail, if they struggle to go on fully then lube the O rings.

Sorry the pictures arn't to good
