Hello-

Injectors rated in "cc" are really in cc/min. Also, those in "lb" are really in lb/hr. The density of gas is about 0.765 g/cc. Plug all that in and you have:

0.1011904*cc=lb

So, a 550cc/min injector is good for 55.65 lb/hr of gas.

Take care,

Save those injectors or sell them to someone with a turbo.
