Back in the early beginnings of the Jeep 4 liter straight 6, I got hooked
on the engine and have had a series of these since. Wonderful engines,
great torque that you expect out of an inline engine, but that's beside the
point. At the same time I looked at Nissans and others and readily rejected
these because they had throttle body injection. Now to the point:  On my
Scout, I can watch the fuel come out of the injectors on the Holley EFI and
I'm surprised at how large the droplets are compared to what I wish they
were. Then these droplets, at least those not vaporized in passage go
through the throttle body, down the intake manifolds, through the valves
and into the cylinders where they are finally used, or passed out unburned.
Port injection makes a lot of sense doesn't it? It seems to me that John L.
could market a port injection kit for the IH vehicles if only he put his
mind to it. You remember that Steve S. has been looking for plugs for his
air injection holes that chirp, how about injecting gas in those holes
instead of plugging them. Then maybe his chirp woud become a cackle or even
an anthem.
