Default FYI on 8.1 injectors

For those of you who are needing a bit bigger injectors but dont quite need 8.1 marine injectors.... Theres a guy on eBay selling new take-off '05 8.1 injectors. I got a set from him for $80 bucks. He bought a whole lot of them from a company that retros 5500-8500 series trucks to run on propane. Just thought I would point that out if somebody needed some.

I Got mine from the same guy(thanks to the heads up from 99silver5.3!!! ). I paid $90 shipped for mine and they look practically brand new. Got them to me in about 2 days as well.

Almost forgot...here's a link to one of the auctions. I had placed a bid on this one, but contacted him and got him to send me another auction for a pair with a buy in now option.
If no one outbids me on this auction, he's going to close it, so someone bid at least $81, which is higher than my bid right now.

Also, you guys might want to just send him an email and see what he can do for you.

Don't quote me on this, I did a quick search, but couldn't find anything, but I'm pretty sure the stock truck 8.1 use 36 lb/hr and the marine 8.1 are 42 lb/hr.

I have always heard that the 8.1L ones were all around 30 lb/hr.

I bid on it, but only to help you out I am not looking for an excuse to buy some injectors or anything I swear!
