sent the injectors from the blown engine in to be cleaned and flow tested at doctor injector in tacoma. two of them are toast, leaking constantly, poor spray and flow. shop was really good about it and just charged me only cleaning and flow testing for the new/rebuilt ones. 20 bucks each including shipping. same shop tested new injectors for my lt1 and found two of them needed adjusting as they did not flow within the range called for by factory and spray pattern was poor. never assume your injectors are working right, even new ones, most certainly new ones from internet.

transmission is in getting front and rear seals, also they will look at it and see if it needs more. gotta pull the pump to change front seal so he said they can see inside and get an idea of its condition. having rotors turned if theres enough meat left and some new hawks pads.

well trans was on its last legs, blew my budget. complete rebuild with all weak points replaced. if it wasnt worn out it was ready to bust, 1800 bucks, dang it. it will be stronger than stock, i guess ill have to drive it more...
