No error Jerry, but wonder why are you putting the injectors so far away
from the port? Space? Ease of fabrication?   I tried putting my four
injectors 21 inches away from the port myself and found that while I could
not tell any difference in power( up or down), I found a distinctive
hesitation bog if I opened the throttle quickly.  Also it was hell to start
on a cold morning.  But, a PP port may be a different animal in those
regards - actually cold starting should be OK as any liquid fuel will flow
down hill.  With my plugs up it has to flow up hill {:>).

Good luck, we are all eagerly awaiting the results and I have two almost new
rotor housings just waiting.
