I know someone who recently removed cups using a 1" thread tap and a slide hammer... (dont ever tell a redneck he can't do something!)

I recall reading older threads about injector cups and the use of a tap to remove. I'm not good at the search thing or I'd dig one up for you.
If you did alot of the injector cups I could see buying one. But, how often do you think you would use the tool? Don't get me wrong, I'm all for buying tools but this one is one that may not get used enough to justify the $$

Rosewood has the best price from what I have found.
Whitaker Tools also makes one, but it is a little pricier!
Check out ebay too. I have seen a few on there over that people have bought then sell after they completed their cups.

I agree with Chris about checking with Clay. He has a new injector cup tool that he just used recently. It attaches to the front and rear injector collar hold down mounting holes.

Yep, and since ours doesn't use a tap there are no shavings falling into your head.

anybody have a guestimate, as to when, cups would be a good time to change,...miles/yr of truck, or is it when you get fuel into the oil or start seeing smoke from the exhaust..(if thats another symptom)
