Terry,
Good to know the install is fairly easy, it must be since it only took 45
minutes. I am getting some Ford Motorsport #19 matches injectors for my V6
Dakota within the next week. I am hoping to see some gains also with the new
matched injectors, especially since my truck's injectors are 130,000 miles
old. Hopefully the injectors will also help realize more gains with my
QuickD TB, Flowmaster muffer, full MSD and Accel aftermarket ignition, and
my recent homebrew cold air intake using a GenIII air hat. Unfortunately,
the #24 injectors would be a bit much for my current V6 needs, but the FMS
#19 matched injectors should be tons better than what my current injectors
must look like. Good Luck!
