I think all you need is figure out something for the throttle linkage to mount to. Why would you need different injector lines? You can just swap the intake plate if the intake is getting in the way.

Are you talking about just the cylinder head, or the pump as well? If just the head, you'll need to use your intake plate, injectors and injector line holder brackets. You'll also need the 9mm-to-7mm injector tip adapters, available and most any Bosch dealer. Adding a p-pump is a whole other ball of wax...

He isn't talking about the pump. But you're right, the p-pump injectors line nuts are 19mm. Ours are 17mm. PM sent.

You can't use the injectors but the head will bolt on.

What are you trying to say here? Dstad is not going to a ppump. He wants to use the head off a ppump engine.

Ok guys i figured it out. Im puttin the head on with the new arp head studs. I might possibly buy a set of .084 injection lines with ve fittings on one end and p-pump injector fittings on the other and some p-pump injectors from a fellow forum member. that will get me exactly what i need.

Why are you stuck on the p-pump injector thing? They are the same basic body, one has 12mm threads and the other has 14mm threads. Other than that they are exactly the same dimensions.

The difference in the head is minor, a head off a p-pump engine has some notches ground so the pump parts clear it and it may or may not have the VE throttle bracket holes drilled and tapped.

What you need plain and simple is a set of VE injectors, what ever size you need/want. Any stock p-pump injector is smaller than stock intercooled injectors. Not to mention the pop pressure are way too high, VE won't be happy for very long at those pressures.
