In addition, the GE FDL used a jumper line between injector pump and the actual injector nozzle that was subject to splitting under high pressure - and right near the exhaust manifold. EMD used a unit injector so did not have the same issue.

I have heard that GE uses a high pressure fuel line to supply the EFI injectors on the newer designs. I'm not familiar with the newer engines - I like the older and simpler designs.
