I need some help finding injectors

I bought a new injector pump, injector install kit and injectors from Pensicola. Long story short the injectors are on back order till the middle of Dec. Obviously being a plow truck from upstate NY I can't wait that long. My wife did some serching wile I was at work and couldn't find any in Pensicola's price range. Heres pensicola's link:

Pensacola Fuel Injection | Worlds #1 Diesel Rebuilder - FORD 6.9L - 7.3L :: INJECTORS

I need some help soon please! Thanks

I missed this sentence the first time I read the post.

You should try to find a place that will price match the web price. If they're reluctant you could include the some $60 that next day shipping would cost in your offer for the injectors. If you go to a cooperate parts store that has price matching and you sweet talk the guys at the counter you might pull it off. It's a long shot but worth asking.

I'm going to try to get them from that ebay link from ah1988. There is nothing wrong with remans if there from a good place right? I'm trying to convince myself that a reman is as good as new ones.

Oh also I forgot to ask: whats the diff between N/A injectors and the turbo ones. I might put a turbo on some day so should I get the turbo ones even though its N/A?

The remans from pensacola are fine the new delphi units are not going be in until mid December its a supply thing the company that makes them for delphi I believe its called AGA is moving all operations from the current plant in england to the new plant in Juarez Mexico this is what I have been told from my delphi supplier as we get a lot of parts through them. The reman units from pensacola are pretty good last I checked the pop pressure it was within +/- 4% not bad.

If by turbo injector they specifically mean an injector intended for a turbocharged vehicle and not just a cool marketing buzzword, a turbo injector will differ from a N/A injector in size. A fuel injector for a turbocharged version of an engine will be larger to put more fuel into the engine in order to preserve the air/fuel ratio as the turbocharger forces more air into the engine. A smaller injector could possibly not keep up with the increased air, causing the engine to run lean and detonate.

If you put a larger injector in your vehicle without changing anything else, it will run rich, you'll loose power and waste fuel.

I just got my injectors tonite and I checked them out. The are Stanadyne remanufact. On the injector end they have a funny looking end...above the copper washer it looks like an adjustable thumb wheel or something. What is that for? Also are these OK? I know how fussy these trucks are with glowplugs so just curious about the injectors.
