Sinister injectors

I need to know if anyone is using sinister diesel injectors in their 6L & what people think of them. I am thinking about using them in my truck.

Sinister Diesel has had some issues with some of their products. My personal opinion would be to avoid them.

Lots of Internet businesses sell Ford Remanned injectors. The issue is - "what company do they use to rebuild the injectors". Quite a few businesses sell poorly remanned injectors.

Why are you replacing injectors? Is the truck not running properly?

6 of the 8 don't pass the click test. To many bad injectors to start

Wiring checked? 6 of 8 seems suspiciously much to me.

You can get injectors directly from Ford dealers. Last ones I got were around $180. Shop around.

How should coolant get into the oil through an injector? I would rather suspect the oil cooler.
