Injectors on these trucks are very simple compared to the ones on newer trucks. The way that most injectors are "rebuilt" is to dissassemble them and replace the nozzles. If they are thorough, then the pop off pressure is also adjusted to speck.
The thing is, I was able to find NEW stanadyne injectors for $25 a piece, so in general, its not really worth trying to rebuild them your self, but if you want to, you can.
You have to work in very clean conditions, if you want to try it.

But these guys do have both delphi and stanadyne (new, not reman).

Scroll down, and you'll find the injectors.
When I bought the truck it had delphi injectors in it, and they seem to work fine. The thing you want to avoid is rebuilt injectors, in all honesty, I don't think you will notice much of a difference in performance from one brand to the next.
