What RPM range do you like to use the most?

The exception is if you have a 617 with modifications, like bigger turbo, intercooler and IP putting out more fuel and governed to turn faster than stock.

Where you will see a difference is above 4000 RPM. The 265 is able to feed a ~17% smaller cylinder but at a faster rate. BUT overall, there is little difference in the two. "

this is the quote from Sean.

I bought 261's

from the threads I read, the 265's sounded more desireable. But I totally trust Mr. Watts

ps..I just edited the previous post.

Thank you. BTW, I got this from the Monark factory. Also, greater performance improvements are gained by increasing injector pump output. Most injectors will allow for more fuel than most IPs can deliver, in factory setting parameters.

Just by way of update, kermatdi no longer seems to offer nozzles for MB. Any help on nozzle suppliers (Monark or Bosio) other than ************** and dieselgiant would be appreciated!
