ok before someone says read the other posts i have and i heard that the ss injectors wont fit right in the 04 eco rail... wasnt the 02 eco fuel system different than the 03+? and does anyone have and ideas that actually work beside making spacers? i know alot of ppl use them now so i was wondering if anyone perfected this?
make the billett spacers people are using . Work great and look awesome. There was actually a post about it.

John,
Sorry, are you looking to put them in an 04' rail?
Your profile says you have an 02.
Just double checking.
I am running an 04 rail, with the Siemen's Deka style injectors and have been using washers as spacers. I believe a couple other members on here are doing the same mod (tinkles, etc..)
It has been working great, and there hasn't been any leaks. I am against "Floating Injectors", so if you combine the washers, with the regular injector clips, they definitely aren't going anywhere.
Just remember that gasoline can corrode certain metals, and stay away from mild steel washers.
There was also a write-up about molding two injector cups together, but I don't know if anyone ever ended up making a set.
Interesting subject. I was looking to do this with my LD9. Is there any modifications needed to run them on a 2.4?
GMR has got nothing on this
i had a 02 ln2 i did the ecotec swap from an 04.....what size washers? and i cant make billet spacers im not a cnc shop.... plus i dont have time to do anything i need everything done for the 28th and i cant start it till next weekend...
1/2 x 7/8 is what I used...can't remember the gauge (Thickness)
Two washers per cylinder.
If you are able to, just pull out the gray injector cup and take it with you. Maybe you'll find a size in metric with an internal diameter that might work a little bit better. I noticed that the 1/2" was just a tiny, tiny bit smaller than the internal diameter of the cup.
but isnt spacing the injector pulling it farther up out of the hole it sits in? and wont that make it not seal correctly?
Step 1 - pm me
Step 2- send me money.
Step 3- I send you an 02 fuel rail and lines
ok well my lsj injectors look nothing like the ones you have so i guess ill have to wait till i tear it apart to see what you mean......i bought hardened washers today so i guess once i get it all apart ill understand... and ryan i dont have time to wait for anymore parts ill just have to deal with it however i can..... this build is starting to be such a pain in the ass tho.....
hey thanks for all the help injectors fit perfect with the hardened washers... 1/2x7/16 fit perfect no idea how to upload pics haha or id postem
yea now only if the frontmount actually fit right haha... i tried 3 different ways so far and it wouldnt fit behind the bumper without cuttin it
