Low-port. Log on top, injectors underneath. Beautifully clean engine
from Soko... when we took off the exhaust manifold, there wasn't a
speck grime in any of the little crevices of the block.

I haven't seen it... he said on the intake side of the manifold, by the
emissions stuff over there. It is there on the G20 engine, and not the
new engine. Perhaps I'll take a look tomorrow morning.

I'm talking about the fuel-injector harness, that little one that stays
on the engine. He says it has a different pin count. Can you even use
overseas fuel-injectors with a US ECU?

That's what I think.
