Since TPI is not sequential technically it doesn't matter.. But the wire lengths should dictate where each one goes.

Yes, that's what I'm telling you. However the wire harness should lay down pretty much exactly where each one should plug in originally.

Re: need help with fuel inj wiring

It only matters that the connectors for the injectors are grouped; [1-3-5-7] and [2-4-6-8]

This is because the ECM triggers all the injectors in one group at the same time.
