60x Monarks *apparently* compatible in a 617?
To my knowledge, Monarks have not been available for a few years. But most of us know there was a contract-based production run by Wolfswerke-sachsen that were recently sold (and branded) by Mercedes5ource. I just learned they are all sold out of those #120 nozzles for the 617.
Well, apparently Mercedes5ource is now selling their stock of new Wolfswerke-sachsen #128 nozzles -- which were originally made for 60x engines -- as being compatible with 61x engines as well. It's on their website, along with a video showing some bench testing.
Thoughts on this? True that the injectors fit in the older 617 holders, and the pop pressure seems similar, around 1900 PSI. But I'm a little hesitant. Would you try them in your 617?
