That doesn't really help matters lol

I was working on a newer Impala and I changed the lower and upper intake manifold gaskets and it was also missing some gasket, very weird

flow tested? are you sreious? That kinda alot of work for an old car. rebuilt injectors are dirt cheap. If you use Bosch injectors, I will sell you a set of 19LBS(200CC) injectors for cheap cheap, they are compltely rebuilt and cleaner with new o-rings and everything.
I wouldn't worry about havinh them flow tested. when tehy are one the car, adn the car is running, probe the terminals and see if they are getting a signal, or just put a long screw driver to an injector and the other end to your ear, and see if you cfan hear a pulsating when the car is running. that will tell you if they are opperating.

Well i cant exactly tell HOW well they are working considering the car never actually ran good at all.. Remember, this car sat for 6+ years. I just dont wanna have to rip it apart again beacuse of something stupid like a shitty injector, you know what i mean?

Im not too sure how well those injectors would work in it that you have. Stock is 182cc. What do you think

chances are you got one sticking or somthing like that. just go to bucks and get a harness off somthing and make a little harness and try pulsing them with a battery on the bench. if one is stuck just give it a few taps with a wrench.

post a pic of what the injectors look like. and seeing as how they are only a little bit bigger, they would be a nice little upgrade, if your factory ones are either worn out, or were never good enough to begin with(like my car's was). Bosch injectors will swap out for bosch injectors, so if you want them, they are good there. These injectors flowed too much for my car, and I will be scaling down to 17lbs injectors.

I had a mainfold like that on my supra. Caused the car to idel very bad,to the point of it dying all the time and became undrivable, and under load it ran like piss. As for injectors, I wouldn't waste the money but I think for a set of 6 to be cleaned and flow tested you be looking at around the 100buxs mark.

Put new gaskets in, left the injectors alone. Car runs great now.

Just need to do the timing and then the exhaust and shes good to go.
