You can ohm the injectors and glow plugs from the harnesses. That will get you started anyway. Injectors should be at our close to 3.2 each, glow plugs 1ohm each. Glow plugs are outer two pins on each wiring plug, injectors are the ones beside them. The center is a common ground.

Just a update on the hard starting stroker, my hpop pressure was low, i filled it up and started it and it started bad the first time but as it was idling it kind of reved up and went back to idle and smoothed out very nicely, then i shut it down and let it sit for a bit and cranked it up again and it fired up like it should, one thing i am wondering though is when you fill up the hpop if you over flow it does it need to be pumped out? i was once told that the over flowed oil will run back into the oil pan and it would be fine, is that correct? and one more thing, im going to change the oil in the hpop with a oil change and im wondering how much oil does the hpop hold?

You don't need to change the hpop oil. You're still not getting all the old oil out that way. It circulates all the time so no real need to.
You can't really overfill the hpop. Once the resevoir is full, its just gonna run out and make a mess. It holds around a quart, give or take a little.

After running that truck a bit yesterday i had checked the hpop oil again today and it was a 1/4 qt low again, there isn't any way that it can mix into the radiator fluid is there? or is it something that comes from the oil cooler? that truck has some issues with leaks im trying to seal up hahah, i know the oil cooler is leaking for sure.

Oil cooler can allow coolant to leak into oil or vice-versa. But remember, there is no "HPOP oil" per se. What you see in the reservoir is part of the lube oil, and gets circulated every time you run the engine.

One more thing to is if the oil cooler is leaking oil into the coolant would there be any coolant in my oil pan because when i check it its clean as a whistle no foam or nothing like that
