Swapping To Injection Head


Guest Hoppo

Recommended Posts

I have a leaded head fitted in the kit car, I’m thinking of swapping with an injection head. Can someone say which gasket set, head bolts I will need to fit the injection head, will the inlet and exhaust fit straight on. I’m sure there was a post on here somewhere but can’t find it now.

 

Cheers Steve

The standard manifold well fit straight on but best to use a pattern gasket rather than a ford one as they tend to be just a little bit bigger and as there isn't a lot material face to face at the top of the ports this gives a better seal. Exhaust manifold is a stright fit.

Buy an inlet manifold gasket for a 2.0 injection sierra, use the gasket as a template on the inlet manifold to mark out where to grind out the injector pockets and then use the gasket as normal.

Rheinz Gasket from eBay £12 to £15 thinner(1.3mm compared with 1.6mm) and stronger than standard pattern steel sheet core

Will add a bit to compression ratio which Pinto's like

??????? Confused !!!!! Inlet gasket can't raise compression.
