Default Delphi Injectors?

Anyone running Delphi injectors on a 951? Any problem with fuel leaking between injector & manifold? Anyone ever measured the length of the Delphi and compared them to the stock units? Please share your experience.
TIA.

I have a set of 75# on the Callaway and I had never noticed any leakin between the intake and the injector. I do have the intake off curently, so I will look into it further. I had no problems with the fitament either. Hope this helps Fast.

6 years, no leaks. Huntley sold them like hotcakes.

Edit: I'll measure next time they come off. I do know the little stock clip does not fit.

If you've got a leak between injector and manifold, check the o-rings. Last year I ran into a case where "professionally rebuilt" injectors came back with o-rings that were very slightly undersized and would not seal to the manifold. Couldn't tell by looking with the naked eye.

Thank you guys. The car in question is about 7000miles away from me.. All I had is a picture of the injectors installed. I'll forward the info, it will help in determining the cause of the leak.

I use Siemmens. I will be testing Delphis soon, but I do not sell them. There are many injectors characteristics other than the flow rate that we must know when programming the chip.
