Default New Injectors needed! What say you....

I was just informed I have 3 bad injectors. I will be replacing all 8 and glow plugs while the cover is off. Any suggestions on where to get them? I am leaning towards Swamps 175/146 Single Shots for my 2000 F350 after reading posts on this forum. And by leaning, I mean I placed the order and it should ship by the end of the week. Any reason I should not get the Swamps injectors?

Go for it! If you get single shots you will need to get tuning to run it... Time to chip it...

I would recomend Power Hungry Performance or Swamps for your tuning...

There is a chip coming with so I should be all set.
Any worries about decreased longevity with a chip. They said it would be 30 to 60Hp increase from the chip. That seems pretty modest, but I am new to this game. THe truck has 200k and I want to get another 200k out of it without major issues.

With the injectors and chip your looking at about a 300hp truck for day to day driving. Turn the chip up and you can be at about 360-390 with that setup...

Where did you get the chip? From Swamps?

You can do nozzles on the stock injectors, but you will gain little if anything. You have to mod the inside of the PSD injector to get any real improvements.
