stock LS3 injectors are 42lb at 400kpa (58psi) there are alot of variables to how much power u will get out of them but there are hp/inj calculators out there to get a ball park http://fuelinjectorclinic.com/hp-calculator

What style plug are they? How would I go about fitting the ls3 plugs into a rb30 loom?
Sorry if it's a dumb question.
Thanks
Matt

RB 30 looks to have a bosch type plug, the ls3 injectors have the USCAR type plug, just be aware that the rb30 injectors are very low ohms 2.4, and the ls3 injectors are like 14 ohms, so sounds like the vl will have drivers for the injectors which may damage the ls3 ones, there are plug/terminal kits available to suit injectors

So if I have an aftermarket computer say an autronic smc with a driver from 1-16 ohms I should be okay too use them?
I'm thinking the last piece off the puzzle is some form or uscar-Bosch adapter then tune it up at the tuners

yea as long as it suits the injectors resistance will be fine, an adapter will suit or u can change the plug itself either way is fine
