fuel injectors mounted upside down?

Post by infinkc »

any downsides to mount a fuel injector upside down on the manifold? i cannot fit the injectors on the top of my manifold so they will have to be on the bottom with the rail.

Im no expert but it seems like I read somewhere that if you do it you want to make sure they stick up a bit so any fuel (or crud) does not pool on the tip and damage things.
