I got mine from them. DZLJIM, Jim Rose, Rosewood diesel, DIY-Injectors. I had mine custom made to 180 cc. I got the economy build. They are GREAT and well worth the money. He is easy with the short warranty just be up front and tell him when you plan to install them.

Yes it can be done in a few hours. No harder than changing plugs on a V-8 and probably alot easier than doing plugs on some of these new 'plastic' cars.

yup, what he said! but neal, they said mine were 160cc, but i don't think 160cc injectors can flow this much fuel.... i'm thinkin they've gotta be 180s..... i thought the max for 160cc was 400hp... but with my ET before the 17* HPOP it calculates to 412hp... and it feels stronger with the new HPOP..

Well I put in a new reman 17* pump at the same time and I can set a CEL if I push it. They told me they went to 160's to stop the CEL on stock pumps. Hmmm...

there will be no difference in power between new and rebuilt, the only difference is i think the new ones have a nice warrenty.... and with a stock HPOP there will be 0 difference between 160s and 180s..... the 15* HPOP can't support either of them all the way so there will be no power or smoke difference.... the 180s might be a tad smokier at low rpms.... but with a 17* HPOP there will probably be a small power difference... 20-30hp is my guess

if you're gonna go with a new HPOP then go with the 180s, make sure you have a trans/clutch to handle this too

with bigger injectors a stock clutch or any stock replacement will have a very short life. mine lasted about 3 months or so after we did injectors, but it slipped a lot during that period. the stock clutch just can't hold that power. put in a call to valair clutch and talk to them. they have awesome clutches!!!

Mine lasted about two months I am about to change mine. It still drives fine but I can't accelerate fast at all or it slips.
