Pretty easy
If NCFPD gets back to us on his approrach above - then it becomes a LOT easier. Conceptually makes sense.

Takes a newbie (me) with full injector line/vp44/ boot removl and install aroudn 5 hours.
I reckon if I could use NCFPD method - around 2-3 hours.

Biggest thing is make sure you use new orings and don't over/under torque

Is there any way to increase the size of the hole on the stock injectors ( i.e. not having to purchase new ones) ? Ive got plenty of power in my 01 to pull my horse trailers, i just want a little smoke while doin it. I plan to spend some money down the road like putting in a quadzilla or edge but for now, is there a way to do it cheap, or free??

No. The average guy with the best hand tools can't do it. The precision is too delicate.

If you are referring to the bolts that hold down the injector, they are 10 N·m (89 in. lbs)
