The single shots? Can I get that from rosewood diesel as a rebuild?

It looks like the single shots arent for my year truck? Here

You can put single shots in your truck.

Only thing is you need a chip that is programmed for them. No problem for PHP.

Ohh and you can get more power from singles too.

So you are saying I can get these injectors (stage 1) for my truck and they will work but I need to get new tunes from php? Doesnt each tune cost money cause I just bought the chip?

So how much would I have to spend in tuning?
If I am called in for smog in California will I pass?
Is the Harness the same?
Better mpg. Like how much?

Sorry for all the questions but I want to be a 100% positive before I spend that money.

Eric,

Singles in a split-shot truck are not a problem at all.
Custom files are $30.00 per position.
If you have a "stock" or low HP (say 25 HP) program, you shouldn't have any problems passing an emissions test.
Harness is all the same. The injectors bolt right in.
Compared to splits which see around 16 MPG or so, singles can often see 18 MPG or better with some claims over 20.

I hope this helps.

Bill so the stage 1 injectors for 500 from Rosewood will work for my truck or do you recommend another company?
Would i need to get all new tunes? or could I just get a couple? Cause that tune list is long and that would be expensive.

The Rosewood kit is good, comes with good instructions with lots of pictures. Only problem with the DIY kits is there is no way to flow match the injectors once modified. You more than likely will not ever know the difference, especially with Stage 1's, but they might not be as balanced as a set you can purchase.

I would recommend having Jim (Rosewood) modify the injectors and flow match them. You could also look into a set that have already been done, then you just send yours back as cores. IMHO Swamps is the best in the business when it comes to modified injectors, great quality control.

You might also look into AC code injectors which are singles, they are usually pretty reasonably priced.

Ultimately it is up to you as there are many companies that are great injector builders.

For tuning, all the tunes must be for single shot's. It will run without any programing, or programming for splits but it will run very strange.

In my 2000 F550, 4R100, 4:88, 4x4. I was getting 7.5 to 8 mpg round trip hauling hay, the same run 2-3 times a week. I put stock '94 to '97 90cc single shots, now I am getting 10.5 to 11 mpg that is huge at 1200miles per week.

It dose not have quite the top end power, due to 90cc vs. 140cc, but a lot qiucker and much better low end power. I have not got a chip yet (I have been so busy) I am getting a long with it, ruff idle is annoying.

If the chip doesn't help with the top end power I will, mill the intensifiers pistons for 120-140cc. I want to keep the fuel mileage

Only if you have a limited slip or locking differential in the rear. Very unlikely you have a locker in the front. To tell if have a limited slip, jack up your truck so both wheels are off the ground, put in neutral, and spin on wheel if the other wheel spins the same way, you have a limited slip differential, add friction modifier

If the wheel spins the opposite direction, you have an open differential, no friction modifier needed.
