Diesel auto power sticks

Does anyone here know anything about the 5x14 injectors from diesel auto power. I just found them in a listing on eBay but I don't know it they are any good.

There is a thread on cumminsforum about them DAP sticks is the thread name. It is a resent post about those injectors. Sounds like a good deal.

Wow that looks like a really great deal! I was going to buy POD's but these are cheaper, bigger, and have the correct spray angle.

Just looked at mine and see that they came with .55 mm copper washers. measured my stock ones and they are 2.4mm. Spray angle should be same as stock and 185 injectors at 145*.

I'd use the thinner ones. They'll let you run more timing if you want and cut down on haze.

So are these injectors any good? The price just seems very low compared to others, and I don't wanna buy crappy injectors...

So far they are working great. They are cheap because they are not factory Bosch bodies. But like the man at dap told me they are a very simple body there is nothing to them. I am very satisfied with them.

That's interesting. Are they lucas bodies or a bosch knock off?
