while your chaning your injector o rings, you might want to replace the fuel dampener with a 12mm x 1.25 banjo bolt. I'm doing that now. I'm told those things are the cause of engine bay fires.

Im sorry for your troubles but thanks, I actually had this place in mind for my work since they are about 45 min away from me. Did he wear a black ski mask when he handed you the bill?

cool. I ask because that is not the part that usually leaks fuel. Leaks there cause vacuum leaks more.
I believe the pressure from the rail is leaking through the o rings and dripping down. I think I noticed a few people's comments about changing those grommets, but that part isn't under pressure. That is all

we'll stick to fixing what needs fixing.
if the guy wants us to cut slack. then er.. dont charge so much for his work.
that saying, you get what you paid for?
if you want it done right do it yourself. and thats what we are doing. unfortunatly. he doesnt know how to do haltech stuff. and at the time he didnt know how to do engine installs. so he handed it over to some one else. whats so worng with that?

Jesus this **** isn't rocket science, it turning friggin wrenches. Monkeys can do it. For a lot less than what he paid.
Thats whats wrong with that.
You can attend classes for technical knowledge AND pay for the mods he received for less actually. WTF.

yeah dude, i've had sent the engine and trans out to be rebuilt by someone else, then figured out how to brop it in and connect the hoses(its really easy), the diff swap isnt that hard either, unbilt it, then lowe the subframe.
Then have it trailered to an authorized haltec dealer or whatever other shop you may need to do the rest of the install.
Although, its too late to go back now.
