Direct Injection experiment almost complete!

Believe it or not, the gentleman I buy my B100 from is a machinest by trade, and he has all but finished the first "prototype" direct injection for these 617/ 616 motors.
I know some will say it'll burn a hole in the pistons, but we'll just have to wait and see.
I can not give any info on the simple way in which he is doing this, but I must admit that i thought that it was quite simple and ingenious. I have seen the parts, or lack of, that he is using. He is using Bosch pencil injectors and the same injection lines will be retained (this was his biggest obstacle - finding a pencil injector that has the same fittings) for simplicity sake of the conversion.
What are your thoughts, good and bad, on this.
All replies appreciated.

Thanks, Adam Bush
