So I bought my B18B longblock without the manifold, which is how I ended up using a Skunk2. Now, I ordered these plastic insulators that are supposed to go between the fuel rail and manifold from Acura, are these still used on the Skunk2? Makes the rail sit up real high. Acura also shows what looks to be 2 sets of seals for each injector. WTF?

 

Nobody?

 

You still retain the spacers.

 

I used whatever the oem manifold had on it. if that tells you anything lol.

 

I guess I must have the wrong seals....I had a set left over from my SOHC but I thought they were all the same. Oh well, I'll check at Napa and see.

 

If you are talking about the plastic spacers then you can use your d-series ones. I have used d-series fuel rails and spacers on my skunk2 intake manifold for the type r. If you are speaking of the rubber grommets for the injector bung, then you can use those as well. The injector openings are the same size.

 

Here's the problem....



With the spacers in there, the injectors don't "reach". The spacers are the "fuel pipe insulators" that I got from Acura.
