I dont know but it looks like a 12v injector to me Bill?
I can see that puller working but its just more work to make where as the pipe and lug nut is simple and cheap

Well...got them out. Now to get them tested. I just have one question...should the injectors come out wet? #1+2 came out dry and the rest were wet except for the tips. Is that normal? I'm going to try to attach a photo with this post.
Ratsun...I first used the 1 3/8" pipe over the injector and only 1/8" of the threads were showing. I still didn't put a washer on yet. Unless I misunderstood something that I was suppose to do. I just cut a 1" piece of pipe at work and with the washer on top I used the lug nut on top and the injector came out as easy as cutting butter! Hope putting everything goes a smooth going back together.
Now do I stay with stock injectors or go with something with a little more punch? I don't plan on entering my truck in an sled-pulls but I do pull a 37'(8000lb) camper around.
If the photo of the injector works you should be able to click on it a see a larger view.

Glad it worked out, that's one of the many trick Infidel has helped all of us with.
I'm no expert on this but I would say the wetness might just be a sealing washer not working to well or? If you are going to replace them I would suggest looking into a set of DDPs or F1s but if you have a 215hp engine and those injectors pop OK I would put them back in. I don't know if your truck is a auto or a standard but either way you will quickly reach the limits that the either tranny/clutch will take. And with stock injectors and a couple of cheap pump mods and timing bump will put you at the usable limits of the stock turbo also.
Here's what I would suggest regardless if you reuse your injectors or replace them.
Get a pyro
Gut the exhaust/get a 4" system
Put a 3GSK kit and a #10 plate in the pump
Timing at 16
These changes will feel like you doubled the trucks power
