is this injector usable? (dsm blue tops.)

It might be hard to find but I imagine it could be done. Honestly I wouldn't even worry about it unless you put it in and it leaks.
Those thing spray directly from the pintle in the end so I doubt that crack is even going to effect anything.

Take them all off, they are just there to protect from damaging the needle. They do not affect spray pattern. They are so common for comming off, and i wouldn't want one comming off when i am at 8000 going down the track.

Re: (itsJDMbradyo!)
Everyone and their mom has lost a pintle cap off a DSM injector. Some people have found replacements at Napa, although I didn't and had to buy a new set on ebay. Definitely don't leave the cracked one on because I've seen people do that before, then one day they pulled it out and the cap was gone, undoubtedly baked onto the piston top.

ok so im assuming these injectors will do fine at my 300-350HP goal?
