WOW.....Texas you're making a complete fool of yourself. You've done so in this thread, and in many others lately. Frankly, why dont you go back to the nation where you will actually fit in. Around here, we tend to stay on topic, with accurate information, and if you look around you will see that everyone that has thousands of posts also has been around here for a long time.
Now generally I dont jump into the petty bs that seems to be plagueing this site more and more lately, however you seem very fast to offer up information that you have read on the internet or seen on youtube, but my question to you is this. Have you actually wrenched on one of these rigs? Have you pulled a turbo? Have you pulled injectors? Have you ran different injectors? Have you even taken your valve covers off? Even better, do you understand how the HEUI injection system works?
Before you go off quoting David Lott or youtube, I challenge you to explain the HEUI system in your own words. Actually lets just start with you posting up a tool list of what would be required to pull both valve covers.
After you get done with your smart *** reply, including the requisite youtube video of something you have no experience with, and whatever demotivational you seem to believe is funny and makes you look cool, I again challenge you to post up the list of what you would grab to remove the valve covers. Then take said list, remove your valve covers, and replace your spark plugs. The kid at autozone can give you directions.

One day I'll be able to assist more people as I learn and have things done to my truck, one day.

And btw Springer, it was you who said that ANY transmission shop would know this and that about that mechanical diode, right? It must have been yourself who called them and spoke with them about my tranny then, right? Most ridiculous sentiment to knowledge I've ever seen. Christ Almighty Above, the know it alls just keep coming from the woodwork here.
I didn't just blow that out of my azz for no apparent reason, the guy said that to me. Whether you care to believe or accept that "well" or not at all is up to you but don't go saying things that you know not of.

That information Pop posted came from Mark K from posts Mark has previously made on the subject.

You've already read my experiences with my AC 160/100s and I'm not up to full power until I get a boost leak fixed. My sticks will give me a 1/2 gear-shift scratch on straight and dry (2/3 is a softer shift) and the butt will just break loose in all gears when the road is less than grippy. I am having my shifts adjusted to prevent the scratch at WOT because that's hard on the ware. It's one thing to go with splits and tune big, this is where high EGTs occur... but going big singles easily makes big power with lower EGTs. 160/stock is a very good mod, International engineered these into the T444E HO. 160/100 is on this side of the fence between good manners on the road and it just being a racing machine.

Well, texas had, but he let somebody else sharpen it and they did a bad job, so it was useless.

Injector threads are amusing.
Don't vote with your pocket book on this one.
Talk to the guys who build them.
I'll gladly vouch for Jim, and Casserly does a great job as well.
Just remember, there are lots of guys out there who THINK they know how to build injectors.
Then you'll go out and talk to guys who say they build them, but they wont build anything past what we used to refer to as a stage 1.
Why?
They don't have testing equipment to flow test them and have no clue what they are doing.
Then of course you talk to these guys at a trade show and they start trashing other injector makers as well.
Whats everyone else running?
Go with those choices.
Obscure brands are out there to get money from local shops, they generally end up back in the shop in a few months.

As for Re-Mfged injectors.
The injectors are designed to be worked on.
I wouldn't' call it re-mfged.
You can machine or grind the injectors back into tolerance and continue using them.
It's not a "bad" thing.
Guys out there running some pretty heavy horse power trucks with re-done injectors.
