    According to that thread, stock fuel pressure is basically 30psi or so.
    BPW at zero percent is 134.
    So If I'm understanding everything right, the FJ10485 / TJ32 for the 366 is about 65 lb per hr at 30 psi.
    No need to re-invent the wheel. But we can make it better

    The thread I shared is from nearly 9 years ago. I'm unable to find the information from the 1993 C6000 tune.

    Possibly this thread is further research for a single TBi injector 4-cylinder swap?

    Along those lines . . . . Holley 552-43 Injector: https://www.holley.com/products/fuel...e/parts/522-43 Fuel Injector 60 PPH@12 PSI ~ 85 PPH@21 PSI

    Yes it is. I was concerned with having too much injector for a 91 cubic inch engine. The TBi I have is from a 1990 cavalier 2.2 and uses that small style injector. I was thinking I could possibly get one of those injectors and run at lower pressure. Everything I found for j car is that they use the standard 13psi. Is there a j car i4 bin? Maybe all this isn't needed and the injector in my TBi is fine? like

    My experience with 4-cylinder TBI computers is mostly with the 2.5-liter Fiero, with definition $1C using ECM 1226864. The 4-cyliner Fiero TBI system is a simple TBI system with adequate junk yard / aftermarket support. The $89 definition using ECM 1227727, like the 1990 Lumina 4-cylinder TBI system, has less junk yard / aftermarket support than $1C.

    $1C throttle body pictured below:

    I wonder at what point the injector is too big for idle and has minimum pluse?
    I don't really have any experience in that area yet.
    I know 2bbl goes sync and async for better idle.
    I know I have read about cranking fuel pressure pressure on trucks and needing vacuum referenced regulator so the effective injector size is still small enough at idle.

    So I guess the question is what is the minimum pulse width of TBi injectors?

    any tbi injector will work up to 50psi. I have personally gone as high as 32 psi. if you are overfueling at idle then goto a vacuum referenced FPR. this will run a lower pressure @ idle

    Do you have any idea how much would be too much for a 1.5 liter engine to idle?
    I'm planning a swap and have a TBi from a 2.2 rated at 13 psi.
    If 13psi is too much for idle, it doesn't really give me anywhere to go with a vacuum referenced regulator.
