Anyone run an upright 4 port injection on a blower? I'm thinking about finding one of these since I can fabricate a carbon scoop for it (just to be different) I know Enderle is more common, but I'm sure these have to work well in the middle classes of racing.

Those are a very good unit, very easy to tune and very driveable, it's due to the 4 ports instead of 1 big throttle plate letting in gobs of air at one time, I know one guy that has one on a blower in a Mako and it drives as if it was carburated. I also used one on a tunnelram setup a long time ago, it was sweet!!..... :)

I second that opinion. The 4 port upright has to be the best gas injector for driveablilty that is out there. Hilborn still makes them. 4 nozzles instead of 8 and an easy change to alcohol when you get bored with gasoline. The wheelstand guys at the drags always used to use them because of the great part throttle operation.

The 3 inch seems to be the most popular.

Very good unit.Theres a guy back east that makes a unit that you can mount in dash that will alow you to adjust your jetting while running. Sprint car guys use them Kinsler fuel injection makes the part. THINK ABOUT THAT.as temp. changes so does performance.

Yep, they work great, I ran one on a tunnelram and it was just like a carb but one hell of a lot more efficient!, in fact, I'm thinking of building another one, I have everything but the injector to put one together!!.... :cool: :cool:
