question about dsm 450 install
i didnt know if this should go here or in the engine man. sectiion. but anyways....
i put some 450s in my 91 civic today,and had a few questions.
- the write up on the site says to get some taller bottom seals and bore them out. i just used some b16 bottom seals and bored them out, and was woundering if i would have any problems with those.
-i put the injectors in and they fit fine except where they go into the fuel rail. the slid in fine,and i tightened down the fuel rail, but in between the rail and the injector
seal(quess thats what it is. its the smaller round black seal ontop of the injector) there is a little gap. just woundering if this is normal.
thanks

Re:question about dsm 450 install
well the injector sits snug(looks nice and normal) in the intake manifold. but im not using the taller seals. the rail is flush with the plastic pieces that sit on the intake manifold where the studs are to put the nuts on. everything look fine but the gap in between the fuel rail and the black seal on the injector.(the one right befor the injector gets fat)

I think that's normal. Mine have a gap and they don't leak so ---- it. As long as your O-rings are good you should be fine.
