I'm looking to put new injectors in a ALH. I was going to have them custom built for a better injection pump and a bigger turbo. Is it better to rebuild the factory ones or is there a better easier option? I know on some CAT engines you can run John Deere injectors and make more power, just curious if you could do the same for the ALH?
