big inch SBC EFI intake mainfold

[Marteney, Steven J.]

FWIW:
This is merely my repetition of something I read, but as a datapoint...
I remember reading a good article on the LS1 a few years ago when it first
came out.  It was interview with some of the design team (or rather
managers, I'm sure) and the thing that stuck out was "injector targeting."
They stressed the design was centered around targeting the injector such
that most of the spray pattern shot directly into the cylinder and very
little hit the back side of the valves or runner walls.  Don't remember what
the benefit was.  I believe the article was in Hot Rod or Super Chevy back
in early 97.

Not that I have an expert opinion here, but a long time ago, John Meaney
told me that the best location was as high in the runner as you can get
(without spraying into the plenum) and mounting the injector normal to
the runner.  Of course he was talking about racing engines, but that was
his opinion about 8 years ago...not sure if it has changed since.

Later dates.
