...on a 3.0.Owners may want to take a look at the
nozzle hole position on an oval port injector Vs a
'split port' injector.Oval port 3.0 injectors have the
nozzle head clocked so the holes are always in the
same position...split port holes are random...which
poses the question ,if using a 'modded' oval port but
with the injector moved to the 'split port' position
should you 1)retain the oval port injector or 2)find
an injector to match the lbs' of a 3.0 oval port BUT
with the random spray pattern of a split port.Why does
the oval port injector have clocked holes on the
nozzle?....so that two of the 4 nozzle holes go in
each of the valve areas and not the 'center' portion
of the oval port....spray pattern and angle is very
important....

.....think,.....where do you guess the injector spray
should be on an oval port injector that feeds two
areas that have say a dimension of 55 MM port wall to
port wall fed by one injector in the middle Vs the
spray of an injector designed to spray on a smaller 30
MM port wall?...Think about the angle of the 4 sprays
on those injectors,where do you think they should fall
in relationship to the port...be it small & round or
oval and wide?....think about divergent spray angles
and why you want they spray in a specific area of the
port....think....Where is the injector sparaying in
YOUR port set up ?????
