I have an n/a 1.6d block here, have all the squirters.
Is it doable on a bridgeport with no riser?
Next is, how to locate them? have to drill on and able after the hole is drilled and reamed to hit the oil passage?
Just got a proper 2j bridgeport at work. Can hold part to +/- .002 no problems, this should be easy....

I think it's definitely doable but having long enough tooling could be a problem.
Should prolly mill a flat where they seat though too..
Pics would be nice I'm always interested in how others do things and plan to do a couple blocks when I get around to it.

Got the long endmills and drills required.
I suppose the hole should be reamed to size?

1.8T squirters are MUCH easier to install..they are held in with a banjo bolt.. not a screw.

What's the pop pressure on them?

im not positive, but i think its lower than the diesel ones? someone else should know for sure. i remember reading that they are slightly different, but dont remember witch ones had what break pressures.
i may have read this over on the whoretex..

squirters arent even necessary in most situations..

With the money spent on the rest of the build, totaling $2000+ in just parts alone, it's more then welcomed. Stock td's came with them for a reason, and if I'm pushin' 20PSI through a t3.....
Not worth the risk.
Been to busy with work and other projects to do them. I'll be sure to take a bunch of pics.

i said most applications.. over 20 psi is not one of those applications that they should be omitted..
