non i/c pistons and marine injectors

So from all of the research i have gathered, non i/c pistons have a larger bowl, and a point more compression than the i/c version. If anybody has a picture, please post. There is a picture floating around with intercooled vs marine, but not i/c vs non i/c.

Does anybody know the spray angle/pattern of the stock 4 hole non i/c injectors?

From most things i have read so far, marine injectors, or pods for that matter would work well with the non i/c pistons.

Anybody have any input on this?
Thanks...

Anybody have an application list of marine injectors? Im thinking about trying a set on my pig...

What would have to be done to 370s to make them work? Bore adapters, and pop pressure reset?

ive ran pods in both i/c and non i/c motors. they run a litttle cleaner in non i/c becuase of different bowl.they make a little more power vs stock 4x12 non i/c injector. however ther stock non i/c injector is a great all around injector, i would still run them if i hadnt switched heads on my crewcab ford. i still run them in the farm truck.

compression

Oilcan
Smaller bowl might not mean higher compression. That can be controled by "compression height". That is the distance from the wristpin center to the top of the piston.
