I have a slow build I'm working on for my '69 Cadillac Deville Convertible. I have the mpfi intake off of a '76 or so 500. I have already modded the throttle body for gm iac and tps. My question is about the original style injectors. Technology in 30 years has changed quite a bit and I was wondering if the people with smarts think it would be worthwhile to find/fit a newer style of injector? The original is a FJ12 low impedance. Tip and body style can be seen here. I have perused ebay looking at different injectors finding nothing that would work without major mods. So is 30 year old technology still ok?

Thanks, dave

Doesn't look all that different from an EV1 except for where they attach to the manifold. I'd probably just have them cleaned and reuse them.
