Are there better injectors I can put in so they will last longer?

This is what the dealer said
“ Tested low side fuel system ok, vacuum good, does not loose pressure to soon, tested high pressure system, fuel injectors will hold maximum fuel rail pressure, removed #8 fuel injector line, found corrosion inside fuel injector Recommend new injectors”

The truck is a 2004 with 80K mile and they will not cover it under the warranty
I have to pay $4500 plus tax.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Go to another dealer and then if neither will cover it just say that the other dealership said that they will cover it under warranty and one of them will budge.

My question is, How many mile have you all got out of your original LB& injectors?
150k on orig injectors knock on wood

157k on the originals. Seems to be ok so far. It's past the warranty time-wise.

I have two 2004 LB7's in our company fleet. One just had injectors replaced at 180000 the other has 225000 and is just starting to show signs of smoking.
