The petrol injectors on the 3ltr are blue, the petrol injectors on the 3.2 are grey
Any difference in size / output ?

The manifolds / sandwich plates look the same on both engines so i'm looking to swap these over to save time.

Is that ok ?

TIA

Also are the fuel regulators the same ?

Easy enough to check pressure is stamped on them

3.0 injectors run at 3.0 bar. 3.2s run at 3.8 BAR IIRC.

As to whether the impedance and flow rate are compatible, I'm not sure. I always use the original injectors from the vehicle, as they are known to work. Introducing more unknowns than necessary during an LPG conversion is not a good idea, IMHO.

Aye the injectors are very easy to swap over. I managed it when I fitted my kit so your be fine.

How about the manifold / sandwich plate off the 3ltr ?
Last time I knackered 2 out of 6 gas nozzles and I ain't got any spare

thats the working pressure via the regulator, if i remember if you fit 3.2 injectors to a 3.0 it puts to much fuel in and crates bore wash as theres to much fuel because 3.2 injectors are larger than 3.0.
 you can run a higher fuel pressure regulator to improve performance 4bar is good.

The manifolds are the same. The plenum is different. Unsure of the Sandwich plate but not sure why your unbolting it to fit the LPG. How did you manage to break the gas nozzles. I think I've got some spares if you need them.

is the sandwich plate same for the 2.6 as i going to be lpging my mv6 soon and been watching one off a 3.0 on the bay

Great, saves me having to drill and tap it then 

The lads ripping down the old car while i'm under the new cars bonnet.
Turned around to find a big pile of bits including the plate 

Because i'm a ham fisted barsteward 

Thanks lads

Keep the 3.2 injectors with the car. Just fit the 3.2 petrol injectors and gubbins to the LPG fanimold.

It might be tricky to pull the injector out, and then fit it to another manifold without damaging the injector o ring seal without damage. "Might". so some silicone lube might help. (I'll just q that up for Esta )
