why yes BUT!!! all LSC's came with 19LB injectors.. not 24LB injectors ;)

all HO ECMs non mass air and mass air came with a 19LB calibration.. except 1993 corba's which is calibrated for 24LB's the ECM stamp is X3Z

You CAN use bigger injectors on a speed density system.  You DO have to know what you are doing and you DO need an adjustable fuel pressure regulator.  Go to http://www.50tech.com.  Some of those guys are running Speed density with aftermarket cams, stock HO computers and 30 pound injectors.  I would assume that with a decent cam grind you could even run a SO computer with 19's.  I wouldn't do it on a stock cam.  Unless you like raw gas comin out yer tailpipes :grinno:
