Injector Sizes?
Can you help? i am in the Uk and i dont know how to convert your lb system into the cc if you get what i mean?
I will explane, I have been looking on E-Bay at Injectors etc and noticed that the US ones all say (for example) 30lb Injectors where as the Uk etc call them 550cc injectors. My problem is i dont know how to convert them to CC can and one enlighten me?
Thanks

I typed a nice long conversion for you that got erased by the problems over the weekend. Basically it came down to an injector that flows 1000cc/min of petroleum is the same as 87 lbs/hr.
I think Lbs/hr is a bad way to rate injectors because different fuels have different densities, whereas I believe in injector must be rated to flow a certain volume. The density of the fuel would change with temperature, etc., anyway.

Like tyson said one is in volume (cc/min) and the other is in weight (lb/hr). The density (mass/volume) of the gas can yield the weight, then you would need to determine/find the weight of your gas per cc. That will give you the conversion.
