    ya thats a thaught, most of our cng cars around here are in the city from national fuel so its worth a look i guess, they are using honda civics now too , i wonder what those would be...i know those are direct fit but probably would need resistors...

      ^only the older civic's had low ohm's which would require resistors........ however its always safe to double check

        They fit like they were made for the car. They're the same length as GTR injectors (3" long) and the insulated tips are the same diameter.

            No, still collecting parts to complete the engine build. Planning on taking some other top-colors to see what they flow.

              There are fleet vehicles used by city's that have this. Phoenix has/had some. Police, Fire, taxi, etc. They get sold at auctions, end up as taxi's or to the general public, then in junkyards around here.

                KIA BP SERPENTINE PULLEYS.
                I had some issues with the V belt jumping off my bpt when i hit the rev limiter. I now have a KIA BP which has 2 serpentine belts and I never seen that problem again. If you make this upgrade make sure to get the right accessories to go with them (alt, p.s.p. ect.)

                Also if you already have the Kia Bp or pulleys, The 88-92 MAZDA MX-6 alternator works with those pulleys.

                And if the alternator plug gets damaged, most nissans use the same plug.

                  a 94-97 miata Alt uses the Serp belt and works for this too. I believe its 80 or 90 amps compared to the stock 60 or 65.. It's been a while since I looked at mine.

                    upgrading your alternator to anything more then stock is a huge improvement all around

                      I don't know if this has been posted yet, but I found out that there's a difference between the gt rear bar and the escort wagon rear bars. The wagon ones are solid, while the gt's and I think all other rear bars are hollow.

                              I used the MX-3 V6 90A

                              You need to change both bolts the one on the bottom goes in the other way and needs to be longer (this is imo a better design)
                              I beleive it needs to be 130mm long
                              Bolt on top needs to be changed as well as the alternator isn't threaded, so you'll need a bolt/nut combo.

                              Pulley needs to be swapped over as well as the washer from the old 65A.

                              it takes about 20mins to do all of that.

                                were you able to use the same belt?
                                I ended up having to go with a longer one. I think it was once size longer then stock..
