I went back with the marine ones due to that's how the engine was originally built with. It'll get a true hx-40 one-day soon but I'm just starting a multi-state move so it'll have to wait for now.

I just put in a fresh set of Boch marines with 2,300 pop. Initial results are that they seem good and no smoke up to 75% power. Am holding back the throttle as the motor only has 500 miles on it. There is a slight belch at start-up, but am sensing that I may need new glow plugs.
Previous injectors were after aftermarket marines (did not know it at the time even though I asked for Bosch) with 1,800 pop, belched at start-up (even with new glow plugs), and only lasted ~10K miles. I almost went back to stock injectors until I learned that the last set were aftermarket marines.
In terms of the current marine injectors, when I learned that the previous set were aftermarkets, I got very specific about using Bosch (right down to the part number) and pushing the pop up to 2,300.

So Jay, how does the motor feel so far??

Seems smooth where it likes power above 60% as the motor actually makes less noise at 75% power than 50%. Am waiting to get a little mileage prior to going WOT.
