Ebay injectors questions.

Buy from a trusted vendor for the same price: http://pensacoladiesel.com/index.php...ategory_id=196

Not as much HP, but still plenty for what you have.

I say get a brand and part number before you buy from anywhere.

Don't waste your money on that junk, I tried a set a number of years ago, lots of smoke and if it made more power you couldn't tell. I have had diesel dynamics 150hp injectors that were OK way way way better than the cheep junk. and I have had several sets of F1's mach 5s, mach 6s, and now mach 8s all have done very well and almost exact HP #s they advertised.

anyway steer clear of junk, injectors are not something to cheep out on, and consider the thought of what would happen if a tip broke off!

It could do any number of things included, but NOT limited too: hole in piston, snap a rod if it gets caught in there just right, scrape cylinder wall, break valve, destroy exhaust wheel in turbo

Tip breaking off equals, throwing stones in a glass house. It will beat up the piston, cylinder walls and valves. If you didnt notice it right away and kept your foot in it, you would prolly melt that piston then. It will be expensive to fix.
