are they the same size and specs as the smokem's...that can all play into how they run, did you buy them new from him or did yo buy them used and maybe they were do to be checked to make sure they are all still to the right specs...

I say all this because from what i gather smokems are some of the best...IMO

i purchased a set of 24v injectors nozzles from diesel dawgs. they were 150 injector nozzles. i had them sent to an injection shop in LR arkansas. at the time, my mods were the 150 injectors, s&b intake, 4 inch exhaust, airdog 150, spearco intercooler and a goerends tripple disk TC. with only that, i laid down 321 hp. they drove good, didnt smoke to bad.

i currently am same set up as above, but with the 12v. i have a set of 5x.014 sdx injectors, smoke just a lil more then the stock 160 injectors did, noticable power gain. good drive feel. but only had them for 3 days now.

I have built a limited amount of 5x0.018" and I know you don't have a set. Whom did you purchase them used from, Mike Smith?
