In reference to injectors... an option may be getting them rebuilt locally.
I know I have a place here in houston that can do them within an hour or

still debating if i want mine rebuilt or just order new matched injectors
from Rocky Jennings since I've also heard stories of buying new injectors
with problems as well.
