I feel like a shark in a whole school of fish. What injectors would these 444E's have in them?

Noooooooooo I'm looking at low mileage forged rod 7.3's for under $500. LOL And those injectors would just be icing on the cake.

I wouldn't be so sure they have T444Es in them. They could all be DT466s. If they do turn out to be T444Es, they probably all have AD injectors in them.

If you pulled the engine, wonder what the remaining bus would be worth at scrap value?

The buses with the noses are 444's, the flat faced ones are DT466's. Some of them say it in their profile and I checked with IH's VIN decoder. No chance the injectors would be AC's eh?

No, the AC injectors were only used during the 94 through 96 model years, and even then they'd only be found in the high torque/high output models.

It's a tough battle, having that out back for a little while could be tough to explain but I did get my money and some great parts out of the last one.
