So what do you think, what would fit well?
Justin, According to TST website, #4 on PM3 = 65 hp. See HERE
If your DD2's are 85 HP (?) you could go Mach 4's (150 hp) and turn off TST and theoretically be at same HP level. Will be more smoke pre boost but not a biggie with the KSB-1, IMO. And Mach 4's are SWEEEEEET!

You need the interchangeable ***** so that you can you adjust your HP to your needs. I run mine on the middle size, I've found it's the best mileage. The biggest one is just too touchy on the throttle.

Hmmmmm....didn't see that one. This one is simply "On or "Off".

Justin, Also, I remember having DD2's. They were very smoky by comparison to Don M's injectors. Also, bigger injectors are probably more usable HP with your HO, than the TST has been....no?

Justin,

I can get you some EDM injectors if you wish....but honestly...if you are looking to get a good set that are set up top notch.....I would check out the local boy up Hwy 75.....I LOVE my Mach II's....3's or 4's would also work as well.....depending on your budget...and smoke tolorance!

I had NO egt issues towing my 27' Camper through the hill here in MO and also the 48' Shop Trailer with my house inside!

I think I'm pretty much sold on Don's injectors based on everyone elses good experiences, now just trying to figure out what size. I know I've read before that a 3.8 is about all you can get useful power out of with the HO pump. I just wanted to make sure that going with that size wouldn't get me into the immediately toasty EGT range when I hook up to something.

And I figure with the HO pump, the injectors would be more usable than the TST is under normal circumstances. But it will be nice to turn the TST up when I want max power.

Yep. Got the stitched out Monday. Feels MUCH better today than it has. Still sore but I think it's surgery sore, not trashed sore.
