[QUOTE="Bahick71, post: 3935106, member: 50119"] If someone charges you 10k to replace injectors, it is a straight up rip off It books at 8 hours per side, at $150/hour that's $2400 for labor. You can buy injectors for $2000 or less I wish I had no conscience and could charge people like that. A few years ago I worked for a fleet, we were having factory remain long blocks, with new injectors Installed out the door for $12k. I know prices have come up, but geez. So many Shops out there are ripping people off, because the people don't know any different. Take what the shop tells you and research it. Feel free to reach out to me if you like. I Am a service manager at a diesel shop. I can help with labor cost, and parts cost. Most shops want you to buy parts from them, because they jack the price so much Parts for them is pure profit, most are doubling the price or more. A long block would probably be a better option over rebuilding. If you are going To hop on then building would be good. [/QUOTE]
