Injector ohm test

I'm going to swap engines in my cars.
I want to check the injectors cold and hot, to see if the ohms fluctuate.
What would be a normal reading to go by?

Manual says 11-14 ohms. However, I have 2 sets of injectors (stock GM) and all 12 of them measured right around 16 ohms. This is with a cold engine, or not installed. Haven't ever thought to check them in the car at normal engine operating temperature. Since you are swapping engines, now would be a good time to get the injectors cleaned and flow tested. I sent mine to Cruzin' Performance to be cleaned etc.

try a search on just the v6 forum...lots of hits looking for 'injector resistance'...
