Is Moose the only person that makes aftermarket injectors. I will go with "BB" if I can't find any other performance injectors cause i don't want to pay boo coo bucks on injectors for my pa's 7.3 facorty turbo. I heard a rumor that ATS and DPS makes 4o horse sticks for 250 bucks witch is a awesome deal but can't find any research any of all know if this is true or have a link so I can check it out.

DPS does make IDI injectors, but no one I have talked to that has used them has been happy. They basically ****(as opposed to properly atomizing) a ton of fuel into the motor, resulting in rough idle and lots of blue smoke(all the time). They do make more power but your driveability suffers.

Ok thanks bud I was on the chevy idi forum and none of them seemed to happy about them. How do you like your "BB" injectors. Did you notice a quite a bit of power increase??

After the injectors and getting the timing set, there was a very noticeable difference. The truck pulls harder through all the gears and doesn't lug anymore when I take off in 2nd.

My first gear is pretty low, only gets me to about 10mph before it redlines. According to my last dyno run, I picked up 13hp and 30tq at the wheels.

I always start in second as well, but it used to lug when I did and puff a black cloud each time. Now it takes off with ease and I can't hardly lug it if I try. I did turn the pump up 1 more flat. It will smoke pretty good now if I want it to.
