80-83 Vanagon Injector Upgrade: 0-280-150-114

Does anyone know is there are any other Bosch top fed low or high impedance injectors that would fit into Vanagon intake ports?
Ratwell has a nice list
http://www.ratwell.com/technical/Injectors.html but these are all stock volume injectors. I am looking for a big bump in cc/min.
I'm interested in physical dimension correctness since this is not going to be used with L-Jetronic.

The physical dimensions are all pretty much the same of the Bosch injectors. I used L-jet ones, Jetta VR6, and now some from a Ford on my bus with Mexican end castings and the seal around the mid-section and the tip was the same size for all three.
The Jetta VR6 ones I think were 230cc or something.
*Edit, sorry I just looked back and you asked about low impedance. Do a search with "Bosch 0 280 injector" there's ton of directories out there*

High or low impedance is fine... So any 0-280-injector would work?

The physical dimensions are the same externally, the flow internally is different. Why do you need low impedance though?

I don't really need low impedance.. The length and physical size is the only thing that I worry about... I'm hoping I can find these injectors for ~$20/pop new/non refurbished. The cheapest 0-280-150-114 I found is $41 from Standard MP (SMP) sold under various brands. It's either original Bosch ($160/pop) or SMP made (various variations on the model)...

Aircooled.net has them rebuilt and matched..

Or there are several places online that will rebuild yours and flow match them.. does your parts motor have injectors? You could send those off to rebuild..

0280150206 is probably the best way to go.. that way i remove the L-Jet resistors out of the equation, and retain stock flow..
Stock CV 1970cc Type4 with 42x36 valves and Hydraulic cam.
objections?

I really wanted the GP Sorensen Injector 800-1206N (disc type), but the AutoZone dropped the ball. They said they cant order these anymore, even though they list them on their site. I had other compatible injectors next-dayed free of charge from their competitor...
