All
I noticed the injector was alittle shorter than the stock one. I have my vette torn down waiting for new injectors but I dont know if I need to modify the mount. I dont want to get this together and find out they leak. Seller on ebay claims they will work without any modifications.

Just curious, Do you have or can you direct me to any documentation to support the statement that the 1986 manifolds were made at a different foundry? I mentioned this thread to a friend of mine who is a NCRS judge and he would like to know.

I had 2 l98 manifolds here and noticed different foundry marks and 1 was 1/8 higher than the other. With the longer multec it would never be a problem. The measurement can only be taken with the plenum and rails off. If you buy our injector you don't have to worry.
