Fabricated Fuel Injector
RacinJacin:
I've seen several "originals" - of those I would say they are LESS than 28sq. in. Mine is slightly taller - just enough that I can get my hand in there. Mine uses 6 screws like a Hilborn 4 port - the original Super Slots used only 4 screws.

Ironic timing on this post. I am almost fineshed with my new Shotgun styled but with one off Injector. I will try to get some pics posted later once its totally finished. Cost wise I am at about 175 bucks.The shaft cost me 145 of that. Now if you add in argon,welding rod ,tungsten's and electricity it goes up.If you add in time I lost my butt.LOL Being second one because first one I tried to use way too thin metal and ended with it flexing in and out at idle its even worst on time. But hey I could have been sitting on couch watching TV all of that time..
Nice job.

Wideopen231, would love to see pictures!!! I think I have 20 bucks on the shaft, but I am gonna make another one because I think it "moved". I had it near perfect when I first did it, but I think it has developed a slight twist. I'm gonna try some stress proof and see if that's any more stabil. I just ordered a few feet of O1 for the spool valve - I wanna try making a hardened one. This has been a FUN project! Things I thought would be EASY were HARD and some things I thougt would be HARD were EASY!

Wow that is really cool I’ve always thought how cool would it be to build my injector hat setup but wow nice work!
RacinJacin:
Thank You Paul, I've always thought the same thing!!!! I used to also think, "How cool would it be to build my own distributor too...":-)
I need to redo that video and add some of it running in my Tow Vehicle!
