Default Flowchecked injector placement

Just got my injectors cleaned and flow checked by New Era. How should I place them in the manifold. Rate each cylinder from leanest to richest when using the FAST 90/90. Thanks, Jon

Just make sure cylinder 7 gets the best flowing injector.

I think you would go highest to lowest 7, 8, 5, 6, 3, 4, 1, 2

That makes the most sense to me due to the "Ram Air" phenomena that would exist in the manifold. The fast moving air can make the hard turn into runners #1 and #2 after passing through the throttle body and transitions from this "extreme" to the air eventually piling up at the rear of the manifold and thus filling the rear cylinders slightly better.
