Im surprised the manifold aint melting the connectors.

Even if it were a concern, which it's not, the injectors are rotated, as I stated. This puts them pretty much isolated from anything - they are only in contact with the fuel rail and the wiring harness.

Why does everyone focus so much on massive ports. Gains are huge when work is spent in the correct places.
Velocity is very important also

Also, there is no point making a port huge when the header isn't huge also.

exhaust port iirc needs to be about 43 mm at the exit...across. about 6 mm more than stock. assuming my memory is correct, i did measure these a few days ago, GMR compared to stock heads.... but its not high on my retention list. I got C R S.
