so would it be better to just run 20-22kpsi w/ bigger nozzles or more duration? dirtier, yes, but perhaps the tips would stay in place?
David has a custom nozzle on his injectors. A SAC hole style nozzle. They fail easier with these elevated stress volume and pressure levels, but give much better performance compared to a stock nozzle. On the 04.5+ engines we use the stock nozzle in probably 99% of the time, but they fail too. Just not as often. BUT, when they do fail, it is not pretty. We have always limited the use of the SAC nozzle to serious racers, etc. They typically understand that the fuel system is stressed to the MAX and oftentimes past what it was designed to operate in.
F1 Diesel said:Will I have a Tip Failure with a F1 Diesel EDM modified nozzle?
The short answer is no! Back when the project first began we did the research on the tip designs and their different limits. F1 Diesel does not use any stock Bosch nozzles and we do not use any seat hole styles either. As mentioned earlier the seat hole loading limit was too low in its current factory form to support the extra performance we were needing. We wanted/needed more spraying holes than the stock nozzles were capable of supporting. This is the reason we use the sac hole style nozzle. Although it is similar to a conventional sac nozzle it is our own and soon to be patented design. Actually we currently have 3 different designs we are using that are all unique in style, strength and metallurgy. They are tougher and stronger than any stock Dodge Cummins nozzle you get from the factory.
This concerns me, because I am about to buy some F1 Flux 2 nozzles.....

What makes the injectors so much better in a duramax? I rarely ever hear of problems with them (lly,lbz, lmm. I know about the lb7 injector problems) but constantly hear about injectors failing in everything from my buddies bone stock 100K mile 05 model cummins all the way up to the highest hp common rail dodges. What gives?
12v swap... or p-pump 24v
