Isn't it "200hp" 8 hole. I thought that's how Elite measured them. But wasn't it found they don't quite flow 100% or something. Dustin did an injector tip swap a while back and actually make more with a 6 hole nozzle. I was just curious if he had any plans to change based on those results a while back. I can't recall if info from the flow testing that was supposed to be done was announced or not to verify my thoughts/question.

They are represented that way, but they are flowed to 100%. Elite's 150's are 75%, so on. There were results posted from that, and the 6 hole 100% actually flowed 10% more fuel or something than the 8 hole on the same bench.

actually, the 250's flowed 110% . the nozzles meant nothing in the test.

Really? I may call you then, depending on the results. I still need to call concerning the tc, but haven't gotten to the trans yet to make sure that is what failed.



I know they are equivalent to 100%.

yeah let me know. they were VERY smooth .

One bent valve in three cylinders, been told the cam has excessive wear in it. A couple of bent valve springs. Some other issues that they see but not sure if it is an actual issue.

WTF causes this kind of valve train carnage in so few of miles?

Something about a sled pull that ended roughly....

What rpm was the truck running? Are all of the damaged parts on the same cylinder?

Never reved over 3k , 50psi boost and didn't over rev at all at the end. Didn't know anything was wrong til it would not restart

That's really odd. My truck has seen almost 4700 rpms spinning and I have ran it to 4300 on the dyno many times. Sorry to hear man
