I agree w/Steven about the injectors. Pintle (stock) vs Disc (FMS) style can
give quite different results. Rather than pulling them - I would try a can
of that stuff from Autozone that reduces hydrocarbons. I've heard of lots of
people who swear by it. Oh yeah - BTW my latest mancini racing catalog (came
yesterday w/my oil pan package) has a clearance special on the stock magnum
19lb injectors for $10 each. Thats got to be cheaper than a professional
cleaning job. Regular price is around $14-15 a piece. Good Luck!

Latr,

Shane
