building destroked 3400

it's a bosch 305cc/min injector from an audi s2(turbocharged 5 banger).
it has what seems to appear to be a needle type
of nozzle beneath the hat.

btw isaac it's a 96 transport manifold.

My Ford (24# Denso) injectors had those same orange hats.

Weird looking injector.. can't even see the hole...

Is that a 97-98ish LIM?

update

here's something that I recently bought:

the RR FPR with stainless braided hose...



and I also cleaned and installed my injectors....


the injectors in europe have these hats on them,
they are about .10"-.20" longer intotal length and are
about .67lbs/minute. at 44 psi.

they should deliver enough fuel for about 300hp.at 44psi.

I also bought a water to air intercooler with a 12*4,5*4,5" core
good for 5-600 hp.

and a watercooler from a zxr 750 kawasaki would have to cool the
chargetemperaturs down to acceptable levels.

okay...thats more than I was hoping for
for my engine.

anyway I decided to buy ben's mls gaskets.
seems like the best gasket.

thanks dave.

[Superdave]

sounds good.

SuperDAve how much HP are you making on them ??

315 at the crank

coating pistons

I ordered some molykote 7409 to coat my forged pistons.
it will greatly reduce noise/wear...and provides low friction.

I will post some pics after i am done with them.

[bjornmk1]

just handed ben 200 for the mls gaskets.
I think these are the best choice for boost.

only downside...I gotta contact my machinist to tell him
to remove an extra .020 from the block's deck.

[Superdave]

Yeah..I planned on ordering a set mls gaskets but..
they will raise my squish to much I'm afraid.
so I will look for .040 or .045 ones that can hold 12-15psi. max.
are those graphite ones expensive ?

i paid about $10 each for the ROL ones at AutoZone..

ROL makes a graphite gasket that's .045" compressed for the 3.4 Camaro.. I'd imagine it would hold plenty of boost.. although the MLS ones would be better i'm sure...

[bjornmk1]

would the ironhead gaskets hold that much boost ??

experiences...??

[bjornmk1]

with 15psi of boost that shouldn't matter to much.
btw engines with aloy rods .055 is as high as you want to go.

[ForcedFirebird]

.07 is a large quench. Factory motors are usually .050" or less, most say .040" is perfect.
