I had just two nozzles on the rear two cylinders and it started just fine. You can see how I did it here http://www.engalt.com/fuel1.htm about half way down the page. You can get all the parts you need here http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/hapages/primerfittings.php
I really like having the nozzles right by the head. They are more effective that way and are much less of a fire hazard. I do have them on the intake spider just above the carb on my Mustang where it normally goes on the O-200 and that works good also, but one of these days I am going to move them to the plugged holes where the fuel injectors normally go when you have the fuel injected engine.

I'm afraid I'm going to wear out the starter getting it going. I searched the archives, and the consensus seems to be having a primer injector for each manifold run. That means four injectors on this engine with the dual port heads. I'm considering a single primer injector just downstream of the throttle body. That would give me gas to start without a lot more plumbing. I would use an electrical valve, not a manual primer. Has anyone used such a system? What are your experiences and opinions?
