No. Not all the intake valves are open at the same time. Distribution will happen naturally. The idea is to reduce the temperature of the boost charge. The humidity won't be 'clustered' in one area of the LIM.

Bill, can you recommend a good quality temp sensor that has the best reliability and lowest risk of breaking off due to turbulence and mashing a valve or piston.

The perfect location is at the nose drive end of the manifold and into the inlet of cylinder #1.
Even though Bill thinks it will be OK I have my reservations.

I will drill and tap a 1/8" NPT in the LIM.........and plug it if it doesn't work.

Dremeled lightly around each LIM outlet ports to smooth out the edges and open it up a 1/32".
Got my new coolant elbow....$19. from the dealer, no one else in town sells them.
O rings for the injectors are on order.

Shipped off the SC casing to WillWren for some of his magic porting and polishing.

Should I be worried?

Things will slow down now. I'm in no hurry.......just get it back to me before Christmas holidays when I will have time to work on it.

No, packaging doesn't interest me.

I wrapped it well enough to withstand a drop of 5 feet without damage......except to the glass jars of sockeye salmon.

Gonna have to rename the Bullet to the Silver Sockeye.

I got a note from the postman today. I'll have it in my hands by 9am in the morning.

Something tells me there'* a fishy smell to this M90.

Bearing order arrived today too.
