I have 7 T444Es, some of them over 200,000 miles, all of them have the original injectors and they all run fine. I need a shrugging smilie

Why yes, the ORIGinal CHARGER is a Fastback

You better knock on wood...ha ha Yeah but if you get one that smoking knocking or sluggish its like getting a new engine......lol. I think the one we replaced injectors had right at 230k. It wouldnt hardly run until it got warm and then it wasnt the best. Like night and day now and pushing 300k. T444E is actually a tough engine.
