New injectors from mattdave.

Dave (mattdave) had run a small contest on the forum, guessing when he would "blow-up" an engine that had toasted, and offered a set of injectors as the prize.

I just received a set of great injectors that he had hand-picked from his supply, plus a gazillion nozzle/injector/parts. Not only that, but he paid shipping!!

He knows I've got a home-made pop tester and will get a lot of fun and use from his contest prize.

Even though many didn't participate (the contest was in a buried thread), he came through like a gentleman with true character.

I'm not much for "group hugs" or other "let's all fell good" postings, but this was an exceptional action on his part. Thanks mattdave!

Thanks

Yeah we were having a good time doing it. I Thought it might either a hit or I would be outcast for destroying MBZ motor turbo IP ect. Oh well it just got ingored it was still a blast. Hope you build a killer set of injectors.
