Planning to put a SDS on a 2 liter engine. I intend to use a 2 liter manifold, fuel rail, etc. which I have. I want to put in new injectors as I install this. In browsing around, it looks as if the 2 liter injectors are becomming obsolete or unavailable soon. The 1.8 Ljet injectors seem to be the most commonly used ones on Porsches and other cars. For example, Advance auto has these for $46.00 new, made by Niehoff. Is anyone familiar with Niehoff injectors, and are they good quality?

It seems as if the time to upgrade for long term parts availability is now, as the new control system will be tuned in to the injector size. Is this a good choice? Will the 1.8 Ljet injectors fit the '73 fuel rails and manifold tubes? Are the connectors on these the same as the Ljet connectors being offered with the new aftermarket control systems. Your advice is greatly appreciated.

Or, does anyone have any better suggestion?

Thanks in advance, JoeO

Thanks for the help.

I found some of the basic info that I was asking for afer a new search. I had searched earlier , but must have looked for the wrong words. In case anyone later following this thread is interested, Jeff Bowsley had posted some info on the different injectors a while ago at: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...or++replacement. Thanks Jeff.

Looks like SDS sells a 300cc high impedance bosch for about $70. I believe this will fit into the stock manifolds with minor modifications, and maybe just a spacer to allow the original clamps to hold the injectors to the manifolds. I'll post photos when I finally decide what to do, and get it done.

cheers, JoeO
