 Posted: Sat Feb 22, 2003 8:52 pm Post subject: SOHC injection |
 |
|
When my dohc engine dies I was thinking of running a sohc injected engine, since it would be easier to get parts for and cheaper to have work done on if needed.
It also means I can keep my injection setup from the DOHC, so what is involved in running a SOHC with injection. Will the DOHC injection manifold fit ? Or will I need to use a rodeo 2.6 manifold ?
Would it just be a matter of bolting things up and tuning it ?
(I already run efi so no need for a new fuel pump, computer or fuel lines)
My computer is fuel and ign so I won't need a dizzy either.
This is all in the future but I like to think ahead I guess. |

I read through the workshop EFI guide and it says that parts from n/a piazzas can be used. So I think it may fit with an adaptor or something.
I compared the top manifolds last night and they looked pretty much the same from a glance.

i know for sure that the dohc injection doesnt fit on a sohc.
rodeo injection does bolt up with very little mods, a mate told me what he had to do, but i didnt really listen. hehe |

Ok, would the rodeo inlet manifold bolt up with the dohc throttle body and injectors ?
Understand it may need an adaptor plate or something |

| why not make a custom plenum? its not hard. mines just 4" alloy pipe welded to the stock rodeo inlet manifold. looks awesome when its pollished up, big 72mm throttle body |
