    They will fit, it will run. Doesn’t mean they will work.
    We need a little more info as what you have going on to get you correct info. Part numbers off both sets of injectors or engine serial numbers would be a helpful start

    Good morning everyone, sorry for getting back to you till now but we figured it out, the problem.we were having was that after putting the engine all back together and cranked up cylinder 5 and 6 throwing codes and missing , we tried another set of injector and kept doing the same, well my mistake was that I hooked injector 5 on 6 and 6 on 5 once we realized that and correct it everything start running nice and smooth, pretty happy the way thing turn out
    I'm not a mechanic just a regular owner operator and learned a bunch through this project
    Thanks everyone that replied
    May God bless you
