Default Injectors leaking/little bubbles around where injector seats

I just picked up a 95' 2500 4x4 242,000 miles. rebuilt trans and new converter 7,000 miles ago( stock) does feel like a shift kit is in it. It already has a bhaf and a 4" stack. I am new to diesels but I am not new to turning wrenches. Anyhow what would you guys recommend for me to do to fix the leaking injectors? Im having my transmition guy adjust the bands and turning the line pressure up a bit also a new filter, fluid. Glowshift 3 in 1 is on the way tranny temp gauge as well. With the stock Trans tuned up a bit where would you recommend me drawing the line as far as free mods go? I am going to get the injectors squared away first though. The truck is a daily driver, light towing (trash hauling trailer) thanks

Pull out the injectors clean them up and throw new washers in should be good, maybe give them a little extra torque. Throw in a fuel plate and tune your afc and go from there!

Gsk is easier on the autos isn't it ? Does the Tc lock up switch kill your Trans faster ?

Gsk will make it drive way better! lockup switch will be fine as long as you don't lug the motor down with it,it will load hard and slip the converter.
