Injectors

Will a b3 run off of bp injectors.

[Ford Fester]

Why would you want it to. There is no gain

[Nerd Racing]

you might be able to get it to run if you adjust the VAF way lean, but it will be really rich. I would be worried about running so rich that you wash the cylinder walls with gasoline and it gets into your oil... the bad things happen. If you are running forced induction then you might be ok.

what about b6t injectores

[Nerd Racing]

those flow even more than a BP...

[FB71]

injector envy?

[Safety Guy]

Install a tiny little lawnmower carb on the top of each injector hole and adjust them with something from the plumbing section of a hardware store.

No one else has this! You'd be unique.

As for BP injectors in a B3, someone has already brought that up.

May as well be unique!

A BP ECU bumps up the HP of a B3 to around 100 at the wheels. Some kid did it here a while back.

No joke, but it requires SAE trained monkeys under the hood yanking on various engine parts and coordinating timing pieces.

It's kinda like the cutting edge of bioengineering and hasn't been published much except in professional journals.

It's also a myth that Jane Goodall was involved. She worked with chimps, not monkeys, and she never attained SAE certification in her doctoral program.

I hope that settles this. We really don't want amateurs combining the wrong DNA with cast or forged parts. If you wonder why not, read Mary Shelly's account of the work of a Dr. Frankenstein. Bad things can happen. Maybe in this case, the H2N5, the "Monkey Flu." The Big One could be just around the corner!

Im not trying to get more power just trying to get the b3 running with the parts I have

Oh.

Okay, how do you know your B3 injectors are bad? Have you cleaned or tested them?

Have you troubleshooted the rest of your FI system?

If they're really not usable, then I'd go to a 'yard and pull some B3 injectors.

If you absolutely can't find any B3 injectors, and you can't afford to order new ones, the next step up would be B6 injectors. I'm not sure they'd work or be safe, but they'd be more likely to work okay than BP ones. (However, I realize you probably have a BP sitting around and not a B6.)

Sorry about the trained monkeys, etc. Like the others, I thought you were looking for a "turbo power shortcut."
