At Sun-n-Fun 2004, Francois stated that they found that with the pressure pulses in the manifold, that with the injectors on the far side, they got condensation of the heavier components from the gasoline on the walls of the tubes, and then this flowed into the engine under certain conditions, causing an extremely rich condition.

I find it interesting that after all of their experimenting with injector positions - they chose to have all four very close to the intake port.

I was tempted to pester them directly, but it sounds like he'll post info when it's available, so I'll leave him alone.  If you see an update, please pass it along.  
 
Thanks,

Rusty you can see the fit on their web site www.mistralengines.com They fit very closely over the top of the engine. The picture shows the old manifold which fits up the same the new shape is slightly different of course.
