How to tell what type of injectors I have

I bought my car used and it had some mods done to it. These included a 3" exhaust, ingen CAI, stage 2 pulley hub, and some others... so I figure it has to have a new set of injectors... is there any way to quickly tell if they are stock or something else? Will I have to pull them?

The whole injector body will be green, including where they plug into the harness? That should be easy enough. It's an 06 SS/SC

My car isn't here so I can't check right now, but if they do turn out to be GM stage 2 injectors, are they 42# or 60#?

Cool, I'm almost positive they aren't green... I'd say most likely they're the GM stage 2 42#... I'm going down from a 3.1 pulley to a 2.8, I have an injen CAI, 3" exhaust, and plan to tune it for 93 octane... what estimated power output would I be looking at after I'm done?

id say only go 2.9, others have done 2.8 but the injectors are pretty maxed out on a 2.9, 2.8 and 60s and a 93 tune would be the way to go

Well mine have a black body, and a blue ring just below where the fuel rail hooks up... I'm going to try to find out on my own based on that but if someone knows feel free to let me know... I can't get the numbers off them until I uninstall them and it's snowing like crazy here right now
