I'll can start collecting injectors this weekend as well. Too many L36'* to count at the yards. I'm assuming Chris will need a larger pool to get a better skew rate.

Something to think about. If anyone has a 95, the injector tips are slightly different. I know from experience that the newer style injectors work great in the 95 application and may increase the flow pattern.

Should we also aim for 95'* or only 96+ injectors?

i know i personally dont have the original 95 motor in it, if they swapped my original injectors or the other motor came with injectors i dont know. But as long as the 96+ injectors fit fine with the 95'* and flow better then we might as well use those correct?

That was my thought, however if someone knew other reasons for the change or wanted to stick with that style.........

FIE'* only concern here would be if the impedance of the Rochester and Bosch plugs are within 2% of each other, but spray patterns may also be a concern in how the fuel atomizes. For instance, let'* say the Rochester spray pattern is slightly better than the Bosch, and the Rochester'* are in the front bank and are skewed 2% high for TJ'* car, with the Bosch'* in the rear. The net effect during combustion may be more than 2%.
This is one of the reasons I'd like to help Chris with this first batch. There may be some thinking involved, or a decision to be made at the time of cleaning and matching.

I'll let FIE correct me on this if I'm wrong.

In the long run, if you have Bosch injectors (like the S1 L67, which work great), and want to stick with that style, FIE can keep two types in the pool. I don't think we're going to need a ton of injectors in the pool to create a 2% skew set.

Game, most of the conversation so far in this topic as been on the L36. Being that you have an L67, there are plenty of S2 L67 injectors in the pool. Chris has already done sets for Billboost37, SSEiMatt93, and another set or two IIRC. Not to mention S1 L67 injectors for a few as well.

NOBODY has done the 2% skew so far. We're going to want some good scan data from the first car. I assume you're going to beat TJ to the punch, and you have the Plog installed already, so the test is on you.
