injector mounting

[dennis]

You guys might want to take a close look at the injector setup on this page, as far as fuel supply is concerned. A cool site in-general. Not many MG's though.

>and into the intake port on the opposite side. The

>the intake valve and pocket, and avoid as much of the
>manifold and port walls as possible (it helped to have
>an extra cylinder head to work with). I will fit
>thinwall steel tubes into these holes (press fit if I
>can, JB Weld if too loose), and trim the inside flush
>with the manifold walls. This to provide a mounting
>boss and a smooth and consistent sealing surface for
>the lower injector O-rings. Splayed mounting requires
>fuel supply via individual fittings. I'm thinking of
>using brass T fittings (from brake systems), center
>hole reamed to fit upper O-ring, connected with
>aeroquip hoses or flared steel tubing.
