in my experience thats a big injector. im not really sure on how big they are for a 24valver but i know on 12 valve ve pumped trucks thte biggest you really see is 6 x .018. and with those injectors guys are making 400-600 on fuel only. but on the injector edm'd injectors are alot cleaner and tend to not haze at idle and the other characteristics of a dirty injector. thats all i know so hope it helps ya some and im sure some smarter guys are going to help ya further good luck

7x20... that just sounds like a huge injector... i assume it'd be a pretty dirty injector too; more for sled pulling with high rpms and high boost numbers... doesnt sound like a very streetable injector; which also makes you think why this guy only has 15,000 miles on them before he decided to get another set... 500 bucks is a decent price; but i dont think it is what you're looking for

Yep, passing those up is a wise plan. I wouldn't run those without a decent sized set of twins. Really really hot and dirty.
