I'm checking prices to see if it'd be cheaper to find some injectors on eBay from the US. I want beiges, but does anyone know the equivalent in American talk, ie pounds?

We rate injectors in cc/min too

But if you really want the conversion, divide by 10.5 and you'll get #/min

JimmyRS2005

I don't understand I know we use cc/min, hence beige 701s. The Americans rate in pounds..is this pounds/hour or something? What is #/min??

EscortWRC

Yep, you're right....pounds per hour

JimmyRS2005

Okie dokie, thanks. Flippin Americans...who uses pounds when talking about a liquid?! Its density could be anything! GOoooooooooooooooo Americaaaaaaa!

I FREAKING HATE the English system of measurement, the metric system is SO much better.

Now if we could just make metric universal everywhere (and LHD cars) we'd be on the right track

JimmyRS2005

I'm confused, are you having a dig at UK measurements, saying everything should be metric? We rate them in cc's, you rate them in lbs!! You know English stuff's best

EscortWRC

NO, I was speaking the truth

The english system of measurement is used by only 1.5 countries on earth (we cling to it for some reason, and you still use it about half the time)

I'd prefer metric, just like the rest of the world

JimmyRS2005

But we rate our injectors in cubic centimetres (metric) and you use pounds (imperial) Granted, we use imperial for lots of other stuff, I think you just picked a bad case to carry the argument with as this is one area where our nations' measurements differ and England comes out on top!

Who is 'you' ???

I rate mine in cc/min too

JimmyRS2005

"you" is "we" is UK. On our eBay and websites the injectors are rated in cc's, your eBay gives them in lbs. I'm not cross about it or anything, just didn't know the conversion rate
