A book to get and some other fuel injection odds and ends

A friend recommended I pick up a copy of Four-Stroke Performance Tuning as I get ready to put fuel injection on my PC. That’s the book that he used 10 or so years ago when he put FI on a Datsun engine. He also suggested that I might point the injectors up toward the plenum to improve atomization.

One person on the IPCRC suggested that I fit a vacuum-operated fuel regulator to decrease flow to the injectors at high vacuum (low RPM). I need to investigate this more to see if this would be worthwhile to pursue or if modern injectors can give me precise enough fuel delivery for lower RPM operation.

It seems that there are two types of injectors. One is standard and the other is a pico injector. Picos use less power according to someone on the IPCRC. That is good for our power-starved PCs.

This project will be taking a back seat for the next month or two as I have several conference papers to produce in short order. Hopefully by June I will have some plans put together and parts ordered. I’d like to go to next year’s TGPCHPCMY2KMR+11 ride with working fuel injection. And a rear rack. 🙂
