Injectors

[deadlyman]

Has anyone replaced the stock injectors with performance injectors and can you put them in yourself?

It has been my experience that unless you start with NEW nozzles, you are taking a major risk, and may not get much better than new stock injector levels depending on the amount of increase made.

I was asking because it feels like that one of my injectors is going bad

I watched the whole process and it took two people around 4 hours to change. Not an easy task. Apparently it is best to keep your stock injectors and replace the nozels, but you can't just buy the nozels you have to buy the whole injector and exchange the nozels. The truck that this was done on has tried 10% over 20% over and 47% over stock size holes in the injectors. The 10s work real good but the truck now has 20s. I may go to the 10s at some point.

Man, thats the kind of smoke I'd like to see out of my tailpipe! Thats sweet.

AnTKoch I take it that you have them in your truck?

That's all wasted fuel. Show yes, go, no. If you'd seen my truck on the dyno, you'd see the same kind of plume only it does not start to dissipate until 4-5' from the end of the 10' extension used to duct it outside :eek:


I had a set that were 65% over stock, but I sent them to a guy that overdid his to what we figure was well over 100% :rolleyes:
