Is it a 2500 or a 3500? What year?

He means the CSFI 'spider' injection unit.
Here's a pic of it.

BUT....
Do yourself a BIG favour and get the Multec 'mini' injector spider. It's an OEM upgrade and is available form your dealer.
If your mechanic doesn't agree to put it in...take your van somewhere else.
It'll make for a MUCH smoother idle and won't leak or block up like the original poppet's do.

Here's where that 'spider resides.
