Have you looked at the Swamp 175 tow stage one injectors? They are supposed to be brand new with new parts from my understanding, and are about 15 bucks more for a complete set after core, and look to be cheaper with the + core charge.

I ran 175/173 swamps injectors for a few years, they were good injectors and thats a good option as well.

They are all new correct? Also what is the difference between the AC and them? What would be better to go with?

Those are going to be almost the exact same output of a AC code injector, a bit more fuel, but again with a stock nozzle.

Its really up to you, Swamps makes some great injectors, top 5 of builders in the country (top 3 really) and they were one of the innovators.

That's the only thing I wish I had done differently with mine. I wish I had a set of 100% nozzles swapped in.

I'll probably have mine pulled and send them off to Cass and have him install a set next year.

If I ever get the cash, I'll have a set of AC's with 100% nozzles installed in my wife's Ex.

Nice to see you posting again, Joe.

would the 100% nozzles drop your fuel economy? I know they will support more HP.

I was under an EXTREAM time crunch when I did Chelsea's... She would have had 250/200 hybrids if someone would have had them in stock. I called about 6 different vendors and builders and OVERNIGHTED the AC's home!!!

I was not disapointed as soon as it fired up! Best running, sounding driving 7.3 I have ever experanced.

I do NOT worry about Chelsea being stranded due to an injector issue or a blown motor.

I am hoping to do the same at some point, throw a set of 100% nozzles on them.

I'm here to help, just like I always was... LOL

Tuning and your right foot control MPG...

A 100% nozzle will not effect MPG one way or the other, it will allow you to have more HP (which by effect means lower MPG).

If you were to go bigger then a 160cc or 180cc injector, I would STRONGLY recommend a 200% nozzle- but I dont think your going that way.

Yep, same here. No worries at all.

I do wish I was firmly in the 14's when drag racing. I know a properly working rear diff along with bars to eliminate axle wrap and a set of slicks would do that already, but I also know that with a diff, bars, slicks AND 100% nozzles, my truck would be in the low 14's.
