91-GasGuzlinZ-28

I was wondering if any you guys saw the Saturday/Sunday episode of HorsePowerTV on TNN? Well they changed the Fuel Injectors on a 94 Z-28 and turn up the timing to get a couple extra horses. Well I was wondering where the fuel injectors are on a 91 Z-28 350 and are they hard to get too? Thanks for your time

well i would say they are little harder to get to than a 4th gen.your injectors are mounted in the same location as the 4th gen(4 on each side of the intake)

But didn't you see? They pulled the old, injectors out, put new ones in and gained only 5hp! They probably could have had the old ones cleaned by Rick at Cruizin Performance, gained the 5hp and saved a ton of money. "Improved spray pattern" yeah right.
You need to pull the plenum and probably the runners to get the fuel rail out. Four bolts and then the two fuel connections forward by the water pump.

That Hot Rod tv episode was one of the best examples of wasted money I have ever seen. They spent around $560 on new injectors for a couple (without pressure regulator) hp gain. One of the best things they did was put on the aftermarket crank pulley. Best Bang for the buck, cheap and a much larger gain at the rearwheels.

Did you hear them try and play it off? They said that horsepower was not the issue, it was the throttle response they gained that made the injectors worthwhile. They added injectors, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, chip and underdrive pulley and only gained about 13 horsepower overall; with 8 of it coming from the pulley! I'm sure they're smart enough to know that it was a waiste of money. They filmed it, though, so they had to put it on the air so that they weren't waisting even more money buy throwing it away.

Unless you have a misfiring or leaking injector, dont bother changing them. They'll support just about any mod you put on your car, until you run in the high 12's. Or if you run a power adder like nitrous or a supercharger.

I dont really think horsepower tv gives a damn if they spent 500 dollars on injectors. After all there sponsors pay for it. They just love playing around with anything they can get there hands on. Its not fair how each of them possibly own 10 cars each. I mean its not like their on a budget as some of us. Too damn bad they dont do any work on a TPI.

DA91bird,

Indian chief and his friend on Horse Power TV should move to comedy central. Too bad it's not thier lame jokes that are funny........ it's the way they waste money like it's growing on trees.

I remember reading an article in Hot Rod Magazine when the HorsePower TV show was still called Hot Rod TV. (same morons) Hot Rod lent them a modded Mustang 5.0 to do some work on and test at the strip. They were pissed when they got it back. It rode horrible and the mods were done poorly resulting in a lack of quicker et's. If I remember right, they couldn't get it to match it's previous et's before they sent it away!!! Shortly after, the named switched to Horsepower TV with no connection to Hot Rod magazine. I wish someone would pay me $$$$ to be an idiot!

In case anyone was interested, they did some other mods the week before.

94 LT1 6spd w/ over 120K miles on it. Stock : 231 rwhp
W/ cold air induction kit: 239 rwhp yielding a 8 rwhp gain
W/ headers, hi-flow cat, and cat-back : 261 rwhp yielding a 22 rwhp gain over the CAI alone, 30 rwhp over stock...

I don't have the exact numbers for week 2, but they got it up to what was it, 278 rwhp? Not too bad for the mods they've done.

BTW, I forsee a NO2 or Supercharger in the car's future, they did the injectors for a reason...

That's no lie! It's just like those yahoos on Trucks!, they spend zillions of dollars and then act like any of us could rush out and do the same thing. They say stupid things like, "We picked up this trick little supercharger for our project [insert car name here] that'll add 1,000,000 horsepower to our SBC, and it only set us back $1,000,000! That's only $1 per horsepower!".

I forgot to mention before that they also added a throttle body to their LT1 project,with very little gain.

vortech305

Yeah that was funny i remember it was 2-3 hp gain. I dont think supercharger is coming soon not at least this season,dont see it in the websit. Anyway i remember back then they hooked up an 91' camaro which was called the SLP project. Where they really hooked up that car. To bad i didnt see it wish i knew the video #. Talk about lame hostes what about those guys at HOT ROD television what a bunch of GEEKS.

The plump boy is the head (or one of them) of aces (some chevelle club)....

The other one is a ford guy.....

All the 2 bit(h about is 'brand domination' so most of them are chevys (no tpi, just gas guzzlin' carbed bb's (sometimz with a blower))

They have absolutly no good info to share and make installing the multi-trillion dollar parts they push seem like a breeze (a weekend in the driveway)..........BS!

Like a spnsor wants someone to tell you all the hard probs you'll have to overcome!

They should!!!! OK I'm a machinist and worked on cars for my life. And sometimes I have troubles with aftermarket parts. (really) I mean differences in years, parts in the way, all the way up to cutting/welding t make **** fit. And they say (welding recommended but not nessasary)

get real. These guys couldn't change the oil w/o someone standing over their shoulder telling them what to do.... and these people don't have a clue either..

I agree with you. The Crank and Chrome show is much better than Horesepower TV. They even have a "coffee break" - a tradition in our garage, expecially in the early morning hours!!! A possible Horsepower TV quote - "And it's easy on the wallet! It'll only set you back a COOL $300.00 for this "high performance" shift ****. Surely it will drop your et half a second in the 1/4 mile........."

I have to say most of the shows are for ENTERTAINMENT not technical expertease(sorry I can't spell). I agree with evertything about HP tv and a couple years ago on Shadetree they installed new body panels ona pickup, there quote was something like this "Were using this handy dandy plasma cutter today" Damn I don't know about you guys but I just don't have enough cash laying around for a torch let alone a PLASMA CUTTER. Well I'm done griping about TV shows.

I saw the ep of Crank and Chrome where they dynoed the little red mustang, and ran it down the 1/4. Not a bad ep, but every other one I've seen has been like standard work on a crappy car. This last week they did the 60 thousand mile tune up on a Yukon SUV. Can you say freakin' boring? I don't like that show very much, I'd much rather watch HP TV, even when HP TV is on one of their many ***** or equally lame (a van buildup???)binges...

HP TV did a nice buildup on a TBI firebird, but the moron's left the peanut cam in there, which like totally defeats the purpose of a good intake/exhaust buildup fest...

Da91Bird

They are definitely going in that direction. Remember that stupid project they did with the red CRX? I just don't understand why people would want to do performance mods on those cars. For the amount of money you have to spend to get them into respectable speeds, you could have built a big block F-body funny car that'll run .3's in the 1/4 mile.

A guy at work had an import magazine one time and I started flipping through it. They had this huge article about installing an Acura cylinder head on a Honda (I realize Honda makes both engines, but that's how they set up the article). It cost a couple of thousand dollars and took many hours. When they were done, they bragged about picking up 3 horsepower! It just doesn't make sense.

What kills me is no matter what they're doing, they're hands are always clean, and they NEVER show any effort in removing a bolt. Ever see a header or exhaust manifold bolt come out with finger pressure on a 3/8 ratchet?? From the git go?[sic] Those clowns are hilarious. Shadetree does the same thing, but as was mentioned before, at least they do more things that most people can do any day in thier garages.... those guys on HPTV are idiots, and if you ever saw the end of one of thier shows where they were showing all the bloopers (Soupy Sales comedy routines and all) you probably ran to the john and puked like I did.

This isn't a TV show but I find the terms they use to describe the money they spent very hilarious... this is from super chevy they do a ZZ4 Engine swap into an 86 Z28 which had a "tired and gutless 305"

"This author purchased his fairly clean '86 Z28 for a meager $2,000..."
[Pocket Change right ]

"Fortunately you can still transform the car into a great performer without breaking the law--or breaking the bank."

The article is pretty vauge and only gives you a part # no idea of the price (already figured it was way more than I had) so for the hell of it I looked it up, $4,771.25 for the ZZ4 Kit from GM. Now I suppose if you look at the whole picure 6,771.25 for the whole setup it's not breaking the bank and it's cali emissions legal... I just find it funny they didn't put what they paid. (this was online so maybe they did in their mag) But hell anytime someone wants to toss me a meager $2000 let me know!

I hate saying it but Shadetree Mechanic sucks A$$. Why u ask. they only work on vehicles to their liking(dodge turbo diesel),(putting ladder trailer on a ford truck),(doing a 60,000 mile maintenece. No offense but their morons they should stick with modifying American muscle and sports cars.
