Thats a pic of standard injector seated in manifold.Screenshot_20180122-174707.thumb.png.068ceb99a81f538477dbc3e0d8547949.png

Do you think there would be any gains to try and make the injectors sit here compared to where they are sitting with the spacer installed which is approximately 8mm further out.

I would assume we could just drill the injector hole a little to let the spacer go further down.

When i get a chance ill have a go and see what happens lol

I believe the 1550cc aka 1650cc (at 4bar) are more so a pencil stream injector so it wouldn't matter too much.

I've tried to look for spray pattern videos or photos but didn't find any solid evidence of the spray pattern.

In saying all this, I can safely say the 1550cc Bosch injectors actually run very well, dare say better than my old 875cc Siemen DEKA V (stainless shorties). However many variables such as an old tired motor, non NEO head and stock vs non stock parts.

Still same ECU.

Johnny you have been talking about the 'jetski' injectors which I believe are the 930cc bosch units ending in 040 correct? You're well would these work on RB26 with the extended tips?

Can we get you to measure the size of that water hole please

Cheers A . 

Does that top water passage have any requirement other than being a source point for other components?

On inspection, purely to cool the upper area of the manifold, provide water to the bleeder and the turbo.

You could go without feeding it any water and deleting the bleeder and sourcing the water elsewhere

Ill have a better look at it later this week but im sure you can basically cut that top part off and just keep, how do i explain it, like 2 posts where the rail bolts down.

Then screw or weld dash fittings in to the water points you require as they will still be accessable.

Bit of stuffing around to fit injectors but for people that have nothing better to do it might be an option.

    • Depending on the hose, sometimes engine out is the easiest option  
    • Get an inspection camera up there. 
    • Yeah, but look at the margin in viscosity between the 40 and the 60 at 125°C. It is not very large. It is the difference between 7 and 11 cP. Compare that to the viscosity at only 90°C. The viscosity axis is logarithmic. The numbers at 90 are ~15 and ~35. That is about half for the 40 wt oil and <half for the 60. You give up viscosity EXPONENTIALLY as temperature rises. Literally. That is why I declare thicker oil to be a bandaid, and a brittle one at that. Keep the oil temperature under about 110°C and you should be better off.   Having said all of that, which remains true as a general principle, if you have indeed lost enough oil from the sump that the pump was seeing slightly aerated oil, then all bets are off. That would of course cause oil pressure to collapse. And 35 psi is a collapse given what you were doing to the engine. Especially if the oil was that hot and viscosity had also collapsed. And I would put money on rod or main bearings being the source of the any noise that registered as knock. Hydraulic lifters should be able to cope with the hotter oil and lower pressure enough to prvent too much high frequency noise, although I am willing to admit it could be the source.
    • Thanks for the reply mate. Well I really hope its a hose then not engine out job
