well with gravity or without has very little significance because the change in elevation from top mount to bottom mount is only a few inches. the fuel pressure is constant anyways and will feed the injector no matter what.

on another note. the ITB setup i have is meant to have the injectors on top but in the late 90's the series swithes to a different chassis, rolt i believe, and the chassis space frame was in the way of the fuel rail so a new set of ITB's was created.

hes what im talking about:


and this


i will soon have pics of the model in Pro-E(3D modeling software i use)

no they have top feed injectors but the whole injector fits into the housing so it is not effected by vibration.

considering atlantic cars had almost no suspension, lol, i guess it was a good thing.

oh you will like it. i have one of Bobby Rahal's old Indy 500 motors at my shop. huge turbo'd ****. the plenum on that thing is a very nice design and very compact too. i will try to replicate it.

stay tuned for pix. the plenum is part of the reason i wanted to place the injectors on the bottom.

I was kinda wondering, is it me, or how's he gonna make 4 work on 6 ?

If the Head is set up for it, I don't see how it can't make more power.

i have the two black ones in the pics in previous post and one more silver assembly. each assembly is for 2 cylinders.

the two black ones are from a 4age 4 cyl motor. the silver one is getting shipped to me as we speak from Jack Crone Racing in California.

if each assembly is for 2 cylinders, and i have 3 assemblies, then simple 2nd grade math yields a total of 6 cylinders worth of ITB's.

hey guess what i have a 6 cylinder engine...i think it will work
