I found a local salvage yard that has a bunch of new (rebuilt) Detroit injectors sitting in the boxes on a shelf in his back room on shelves covered in dust!! Some of the #s are c60, c65, E65, e45, S70 and so on....these can probably be bought for $20-25 each. What is the meaning to the #s and letters and how can I tell if they will work in my 53 series engines? Where would I find out this info? Thanks, Chic

Maybe I am wording this wrong......Lets try this! Can I put ANY 55-60 size DD injector in my 53 series engines and will they work okay?? Does anybody know the differences in performance with the different letter injectors? Does anyone know where I can read up on the differences?? thanx

Thanks for all the info so far! K=tron, Scanning the book would be great and the parts I am talking about are new/rebuilt in the box and wrapped from the manufacturer/rebuilder. Only the boxes are dusty/dirty. I am going to buy some for my 53 series engines for when I put them in service and want to make the best decisions I can for what I have. I am also thinking of buying some extras for experimenting and maybe hop-ups.
