injector question

[monroe_s]

Ok im pretty sure i need different injectors in my engine. Does anyone know if i can just buy new nozzles and replace them and use my current injectors, or would it be better to get rebuilt ones??

You could buy nozzles, and install them, and they'd work. Your porformance would be a shot in the dark. Without a test stand, it would be like "eyeballing" spark plug gaps. Spray patterns and pop pressures would not be predictable if you just "threw them to together". If pop pressures are not within spec, or you have one that is off by 50 - 100 PSI, you may end up with 7 cold cylinders, and one hot one. You may not notice a running difference, or your cummulative EGT's would be normal, but one cylinder (piston) will get cooked. Hence the reason for replacing the injectors in a set.

Reman's are good, new is better, and not much more $$. Price them with the DP advertisers. Most are very reasonable. Stock injectors are cheap, compared to HP's.
