Amazing how well she runs with good injectors! I lucked out on some older NIB ones for a steal, put some on the shelf and replaced my bad ones. One of them came in the old style box and had older markings on it compared to the newer ones...date on it puts it at 10 years old!

I need to plan on upgrading my hardware under the front cover when I do my fan clutch here in the near future, though it might make more sense to wait until next time my engine is apart as well...

With all the talk about haggais, it makes it hard to not just drop off my truck there later in the year...but then I'd never have the chance to cut the counterbores and get balls deep in this thing, pull the crank, etc...

I'm an engine kinda guy. Hard to resist the temptation to DIY it at home. Glad yours is coming along, betcha can't wait to drive it!

old injectors??? -- You might want to consider older injectors has a recall on them...

Looks to be older than that...it has an RX p/n on the box, not a PX...pulled it out and it is not marked as a reman.

The ones I installed we're also new ones. I didn't install any remans yet, they are still on the shelf.

For what I paid for these, it was worth it just for cores...so I'm still not complaining. I'll see if I can pull one out and snap a pic of it today.
