Injector spacing of manifold similar to Subaru

Post by mlauzon »

Hi,

just wondering is anyone knows if the injector spacing of a type 4 OE manifold (I measured it as 85mm) is close to that of a Subaru impreza manifold?

TIA,

Michel

I got a response from one of the ebay merchants. It appears wrx injector spacing is 112.5 mm. So cannot use that. LS1 engines have 85mm spacing, but, rail is cut at an angle, so that will not work.

Are you looking for fuel rail?...

If so get "generic" fuel rail extrusion and make you own..... Its not hard, you need some really accurate drill bits and a "tap" to cut threads....

Was some discussion about it here in one of the build threads....

Dale.

Thanks. That probably will be the way I will go although I just read last night about possibly using audi V6 fuel rails.
