Subject: info for thoes who have a M-1!
IP: Logged

Message:
i have read that the fuel rail spacers that are used on the M-1 are too long. they dont let the injectors sit down in the bosses like they should. if you cut 3/32" to 1/8" off of them, this will allow the injectors to sit how they are sopose to.

i cut them down yesterday, and WOW. i didnt think it would make a diferance, but it does!! it seems like the powerband is a lot smoother, and the top pulls harder than it did before. its not going to give you 20 HP, but it helps. and its free.

Injection is nice, but i'd rather be blown.

Where did you get your M1 one from and how long were your spacers originaly? I don't even want to think about tearing up my spacers without knowing what others are starting with.

i got the manifold from speedtweaks (but was drop shipped from mopar). i have no idea how long the spacers were.
i was told the were too long, so i took them out, pushed down on the fuel rail and tried to put the spacers back in, and they would not fit.
i used a bench grinder to take off material a little at a time untill they slid in.
