Default Bosch 403 Grey injectors

Does anyone know the flow rates and lag times of all the different cosworth injectors. Im mainly after information on the grey 403s but a chart with all the types would be useful.

Ive googled this but cant seem to come up with much
Thanks

FEATURES of the 403 - GREY in color/colour, / Low impedance / Coil resistance 2.6 Ohms / Peak and hold type / common L-LE Jet 2 pin electrical connector / unusual ends / length dimensions as per standard EFI injector (65 mm c/c between O-Rings) / single pintle.
Flow rate - Charts show 503 cc/min (49.3 lbs/hr) @100% duty cycle, presumed at a pressure of 3 Bar (43.5 psi). USA based www.dune-buggy.com and others show a higher flow 55 lbs/hr @ 45 psi. (Feedback from P Bradley) -403 injectors - had them cleaned and flowed. At line pressure of 43.5 psi, they flow about 59 lb/hr or about 600 cc/min at 100% duty cycle, flat out. Wide open they flowed 114 cc after 11.4 seconds, and pulsed flow 102 cc after 21.2 seconds.

for the whole page look at:

hope this page helps at bit,

regards, Rinus

The above numer 0-280-150-403., shows the following,
FLOW= LBS/HR 47.9, CC/MIN = 503.4, GRAMS/MIN 362.1
Rating 43.5 PSI/3 BAR, these are LOW impedance injectors fitted as standard kit to FORD 5.0i HO.
The listing also contains BSFC data, not really of any use.
NOTE:
THERE IS ANOTHER INJECTOR OF THE EXACT SAME NUMBER, which has different flow, but this is most likely due to a pressure increase, as the flow is higher.

Don't use them they are JAGUAR ones for 3.2/3.6, have way smaller flow as BSFC is totally different.
0-280-150-129 are,
191.3 CC/min, where as 0-28-150-403 are 503.4 CC/min.

Sell them on ebay for jaguar bits.
Nice to know someone does not give a shit about your engine going bang so long as he makes a few bucks out of you selling these!!
Hooray for KARL spotting that, could have been expensive otherwise!!
Were they the same colour etc as the "cossie" ones ?

yeah looked the same, but (hard to explain) but the nozzle (if thats what you call it) had the rubber o ring built in, where as proper greys, have an exposed end if you know what i mean?
