Question re: injectors

[Frank Deutschmann]

I have a semi-theoretical question on fuel injectors:

Given an injector which is sized such that it can operate synchronus with
the intake valve at a given RPM (i.e.: the injector is large enough that it
can deliver the full quantity of fuel required within the opening window of
the intake valve, but not so large that the injector open time window error
component becomes significant), is there any benefit to placing the injector
farther from the intake valve?

In particular, I am wondering if there is some benefit of increased fuel
evaporation if the injector is moved farther away from the intake valve -- I
am assuming a straight intake runner to the valve, however.  Also note that
I am not concerned about fuel pooling in the intake tract at lower or higher
RPMs (i.e.: assuming airflow is great enough that the fuel injection cone
does not widen enough to contact the intake runner walls).

As a final question, how would such a scenario compare to a smaller injector
placed closer to the intake valve, and thus deriving evaporation benefit from
firing fuel onto the back of the hot valve?

I wouwd appreciate pointers to any research in this area!

Thanks,
-frank
