Has anyone here fit VL top feed injectors into a rodeo EFI manifold? I've looked at pics and they look very similar.
Does anyone have a spare VL injector i could try in Brisbane ??

13b turbo are a go. $50ea is the going price. you can use the standard rodeo fuel rail, but you will have to drill it out b/c the injectors are bigger

You must be talking about the early rodeo efi manifold, the one with twin butterflies like a piazza efi manifold.

Later model rodeo manifolds (the ones with single butterfly throttle bodies) have delco injectors, which are 'push in'.

Hose tail injectors like on the piazza are bolted to the manifold, they dont screw in, at least I have never seen an injector that screws in.

VL injectors are not very big at all, even the turbo injectors will only support about 40hp each. approximately anyway.

Rodeo injectors on the early manifolds would probably be a similar size.
