Edelbrock E-Force Troubleshooting Manual

[allicedout]

Looks like I'll be going with Bosch 57lb injectors and JMS PowerMAX or VMP BAP. I'm planning to stick with the stock Edelbrock setup on 93 and think this will be sufficient insurance for 620rwhp its supposed to make. My tuner also doesn't want to tune for larger injectors if my goal isn't more horsepower. Thanks for the input guys and I know I'll be back with more questions during the install.

that's what I was getting at, 1000 cc will get him close to 1000 on e-85 so I wouldn't waste time on a smaller one especially when the car will run fine with them.

At this point though with the money involved with those 1050x injectors I would get something even bigger, IF I knew for a fact I was going on for more power later on down the line.

I just checked a few stores and almost ALL of the 1000 cc injectors are retailing for 700+ the ID1050x are 1100+ in most stores holy hell! at this rate the FIC 1440 seems to be a steal, I just bought a set for ~1200 plus tax.

Shit man... this inflation is killing me.

Yep I agree to a point at that price if your looking to make big boy power then go 1440 but honestly most don’t need that big because after 800rw on a stock shortblock you’re taking a big risk at going Booooom

1050x for 90% of the guys in here are fine, jmho

lol Lund just told me I will fall short of my max effort 1300 wheel goal with 1440's and I need 1650s or 1700x.... I'm not so sure but I'm gonna find out.

Do you need a BAP or would a DW415 be enough? I'm using FIC 1000s, 2nd gen motor

Always a bit bigger is safer in the long run

Don’t bother with a BAP. Put a new fuel pump in with ID1050x injectors.

well since FIC didn't have any 1440s they will send 1650s instead.... horray

New member here! Thanks for the add! I have a question on my SC. I had a misfire on cylinder # 8, found out it was the coil pack and replaced it. Ever since this the SC doesn’t sound the same and the lid balloons when I jump on it. I am making 10 lbs of boost and have never seen it ballon like that. Does anyone else’s lid balloon when they jump on it? I have had no luck with EB. The car is running fine and it builds boost but it does seem a bit less powerful in the upper gears and this could just be in my head but not sure. Any feedback would be appreciated.

That doesn't sound like how mine sounds, maybe someone can chime in. I never have heard it sound zingy like that

Last weekend, I upgraded my stock port injectors to the 62lb versions used in the Predator. I also installed a VMP BAP and NGK9510 plugs gapped at .026 per Lund. Sent in my first datalog and Lund says that she is running too lean to tune and they want me to get her smoke tested.

I've checked all the vacuum hoses, including the PCV stuff and don't see anything visibly amiss. No fuel leaks either. I'm going to bypass my UPR catch can today with the original PCV hose and see whether that makes any difference. Anyone here ever have a similar issue like this?

Is this ported? l haven't ever seen the top move (balloon) like that.

try plugging all of your vacuum ports.

Pull the cover and have a look at the core. Something is holding up the flow possibly. There’s also 2 bolts under the 2650 plates on the top.

How were you able to build boost sitting still? I admit I’ve never tried it though.

No it’s is not ported.
