There are quite a few different configurations that can interchange on these motors , from injectors to liners to different heads, 4 valve to the old "low block" 2 valve head. To get the power with bigger injectors the 4 valve head is needed. Cheers Andrew

We’ve got the liners with large holes. We had those airbox covers off to check out the pistons, ring, and bores. Pretty handy!

This tank has 4-valve heads on the original 2-valve blocks. Strangely enough, the other tank with the larger N95 injectors still has the original 2-valve heads.
