Bosch 1680cc (160lb) Injectors

[ErikTande]

Can I run these injectors? They're Bosch 280150837 . The reason I ask is they are a bit longer than stock. I got them on the classifieds here like 3 or 4 years ago.

Thanks!

You can change the pintle cap to a shorter style. I ran those many many years ago

You sure about that? I'm almost certain the metal part on the inside is just as long. A shorter cap would just fail to cover the entire metal part then. I'll take a cap off and take a pic later, I need to replace the caps anyway.


And after thinking about it for a bit I'm guessing the longer cap won't cause any problems with operations anyway. I'm going to clean and flow test them and give them a shot.

Would it be better if we just said 1600cc??

Got them cleaned and flow tested, 3 of them flowed 149 lbs per minute (1564cc) and the other one is at 152 (1596cc).


I'm not too worried about the 30cc difference (should I be?) so I'm going to pop them in the car and rock them.

Long time ago I was having these long pintle RX-7 injectors without changing pintle on my 1g. I had no issue.

As long as they flow close to one another, you are fine. Just adjust your global accordingly
