    Where can I buy these tools, can you point me to a website? In case I don't know how to do something - is there a repair manual for this engine?

    P.S. Freightliner Las Vegas sells the injectors for this engine (VIN) for $450 each, I didn't check with Detroit Diesel shop.

    Detroit or freightliner can get you the injector height tool. they will need yoir engine serial number. they can also get you an engine service manual, but a Google search should get you all the torque specs. valve and Jake clearance is listed on the valve cover. the only other tools needed are a torque wrench, metric sockets/ wrenches and some Allen wrenches. nothing else.
    450 seems pretty high if you are buying a six pack. Might want to shop around
