What should I expect to pay for a generic hp set of injectors, Im not into the max HP thing as I cant keep transmissions under the trucks as they are, but I would like to know a reasonable price to pay for a set of injectors.

seems like about 350-500 is the "general" price range for a decent set of injectors

stock LP would put out anywhere from 5 to 20 psi. I could get mine to drop to 1 or 2. I've seen IP fail on these motors and spill oil in the crankcase. I had a broken excavator in my yard and half a basement for my garage for a week.

Wouldn't I see smoke out the tail pipe if the injector was not popping correctly?

We're talking about a 2nd Gen P7100 truck with a piston LP that should be making at least 30psi if it's healthy. It is not possile for the inline P7100 IP to put fuel in the cankcase. You are talking about the earlier VE rotary IP.
