I can tell you if you had a 1U or 2U blank that we could pull the guts from our existing 4 port syncinjectors, and a single blank for the guts of a sitemnitor, and sold the existing 4 port injectors with a spare sticker, id be pig in shit happy. If you had that, Id still pay the current cost of the syncinjectors, and you could keep the housings
