94-97 had the same injectors unless it was a california emmision truck. All of em flow about 85cc fuel. The hp difference is only 10hp(215-225), I think due to PCM programing.

hey havent seen you around here in a while

yeah its pcm programming is the hp differnce. i couldnt even notice a differnce driving my 94.5 and the 97. i reflashed the 94.5 computer to the 97 programming and saw a very slight pickup off the bottom but thats about it.
