Message	Side mounts flow more CFM than than most FMIC's I've seen. Most people buy FMIC's just for the looks. The later style injectors have a better 4 hole spray pattern and a much more reliable design. The early style injectors will likely fail. If you search, you will notice that the only injectors you see failing are the early style. And talking with the parts guys at Courtesy, the only injectors they sell much of are the early ones. The only time they sell later style injectors is when the customer is upgrading.
