Hi

I recently bought some Lucas 550cc injectors for my m20 turbo project to run of megasquirt. Stupidly I didn't do proper research before getting them and it turns out they are 11mm on both ends rather than 14mm. I found some inserts for sale on an ausie site for the rail side which would allow these to be fitted but I am unsure if these could be used on the manifold end as well.

I know the simplest thing to do would be just to order another set of injectors that would fit without any messing about but I got a good deal on these and they've also just been cleaned and flow tested. Therefore if anybody has encountered the same problem I would appreciate if you could share your experiences.

Many Thanks

iain
