Question Fuel injectors

I need to replace my fuel injectors on the Z. Does anyone know where i can get new ones and what part numbers they are. I intend to replace all 16 of them.

Thanks in advance.

Call FIC, http://www.fuelinjectorconnection.com/. I believe if your a member you get a discount. Call Jerry for the gaskets http://jerrysgaskets.com/store2/root/. They'll know what you need.

I researched this when I bought mine and bought the best.
RC Lucas injectors are stainless steal AND flow matched to
within 1%.
Also they are a rotor design not pintle
I took a tour of their facility and bought all 16 injectors on the spot.

This is a quote from their site:
"Vette Magazine, the top monthly publication read by Corvette enthusiasts, recently built a 1995 ZR-1 project vehicle, billed as the ultimate street-legal, touring car. Vette selected RC Engineering injectors."

Is the rotor IMPELLED by fuel pressure? Like a turbine?

Maybe electrical pulse opens valve to allow fuel to impeller???

Is there an exploded schematic for these?
