Compression test adapter for injector hole?

Hi all,
Does anyone make a compression test adapter that screws into an injector hole? The tester I have screws into a glow plug hole, but my GPs are all good, and I'd rather not have to pull them. I'm changing injectors anyway, so an adapter for the injector holes would be perfect...

Thanks!
Phy

btw: Great forum! I've learned a lot about the IDIs. The tips on where to get parts, which parts to stay away from, and how to avoid problems are fantastic!

Thanks LK, but it looks like their adapter goes into the glow plug hole...
I may just end up making one from one of the old injectors...
