Difference with long lead injector??

Hey Guys...

Trying to figure all this out.

I understand that they ran a long lead injector in the #8 cylinder to deal with some of the issues of the dead headed fuel system.

What exactly is the difference with the long lead injector? When did they run these?

I notice that alot of the regualted return systems say to
eliminate the long lead injector, is there a way to change it or does this require the replacement of the entire injector??

I ask because I am still very much considering the DIY injectors and dont understad this.

Thanks guys!!!!!!
Bob

Hmmmm... I may have answered my own question...

the long lead injector has a longer primary shot of fuel to help with the under fueling condition....

so rebuilding my injectors will take care of this....
