just installed 370s

had a little trouble installing first i put one in a little crooked so the return line wouldn't line up,then one of the injectors was leaking 44ft/lbs cant be right. it was well worth the trouble i know i definatley have more power i can slip the clutch at half throttle easing into it. before i could mash it and it wouldn't slip. my egts only went from 1200 to 1400 wich i didn't think was too bad. i think i got the thick washers they are about .100 thick but they still run pretty strong. they are a little rough at low rpm but i think when i advance the timing next week it will take care of it

Most of the time I see a 90-100hp increase with the 370's. Enjoy.

I did a test swapping 215's for 370's and gained 56 HP

Maybe I should have qualified this with it also depends on timing and what injectors you come from. But I did take a set of 370's out and replaced with 215's and lost 90hp.

Does this mean that I'm "fairly close" to the 50 hp I was expecting from my 300's. Keep in mind I have a little pump, but...

I have a friend wanting to swap his 215's for my 300's. I know it's a step backwards, but I think I would be getting a "better) injector for my tired engine.

Watcha Think guys,
Chris

Oh yeah, the 215's would only be there 'till I can afford (and find) some EDM's, where do I find those?
