who's right? edlebrock or RC?
i was alway sunder the impression that it was 10.5 for the conversion factor from lbs/hr to cc/min.
RC backs this up: http://www.rceng.com/technical.htm
Edlebrock says otherwise: http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive/math.html
9.71

Re: who's right? edlebrock or RC? (pissedoffsol)
Well, doing some math.. this is what i've come up with...
100 cc/min = 202.8 ounces/hour.. Divide 202.8 by 16 (16 ounces/lb) to get lb/hr which would be 12.675 lb/hr.
according to that, they're both wrong?
7.886 cc/min = 1 lb/hr
so if you had 550 cc/min injectors, it would be 1115.8 Ounces/hr or 69.7 lb/hr

nope - confusing your weights and volumes
oz can be both - damn english system
search reveals gasoline weighs between 5.8 and 6.5 lbs per gallon
lb/hr*1gal/5.8lb *3.785liter/1gal*1000cc/1liter*1hour/60min=10.88 cc/min
lb/hr*1gal/ 6.5lb*3.785liter/1gal*1000cc/1liter*1hour/60min=9.71 cc/min
Depends on the weight of your gas.
