The injectors are. If the SVO can get its' final temp boost right before injection(or return to the tank) we protect the expensive to repair/replace injector pump. This might be critical in the long term. Of course this is probably only neccesary on IDI engines. I need to contact an authority on what temps inj. pumps are designed to withstand long term.

On a long length of hose I found that the heat transfers pretty well in the bundle. Insulation,inside tube diameter, good contact between the tubes, and length are the critical variables. An electric boost heater at the pump might make up for less efficiency of this method compared to HIH. I suppose one could use copper instead of poly and get better thermal efficiency. > > Motie posted about $70. Hard to beat, I'd think - > but you're not talking > about a casting, obviously.

Or maybe one of the flexible washers that are used to pass wire bundles through an autos' firewall combined with an epoxy "outer overlay" to hold the "stick" in place. It would be simple enough to snap the epoxy if one ever needed to remove the "stick". Dana > > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Check out Yahoo! Shopping and Yahoo!
