I seen a stock set of 2012 6.7 cummins tips the other day and looked like they would swap on to a lbz/lmm injector. Has anyone else seen these tips they have 8 holes and are staggered to each other up/down pretty cool looking. I know that the 03-04 305hp 5.9 is 8 hole as well not sure on how they seat on the injector and spray angle of either one.

Anybody try this/info?

Sonny is just asking questions guys. If everyone follows everyone else then we are all followers and only one leader. People actually invent things by thinking out of the box. I don't know if it will work or have any gains at all. Give it a try Sonny and let us know what happens.:thumb:

You can use different nozzles, but you will need to put small pins in the holes with the injector installed in the head to make sure the spray angle is correct.
If the angle is incorrect you will have to machine a groove around the nozzles where the fuel feed goes to the fuel sac in the nozzle tip. You then will have to mark the nozzles and install them with out dowel pins relying on the marks to properly align the spray pattern. Its a fairly simple procedure if you can be precise and know what to look for.
Before you get too excited about the nozzles you should check the fuel sac capacity itself with a graduated cylinder.
You may be better off with 7 hole lbz tips

I think I remember some people talking about putting duramax tips on cummins injectors because they flowed better.

Sonny, why not give Exergy a call and ask them what they think? You never know....

Yeah i would think they would know the angle and how much they flow and what not if it would really work on a LBZ LMM and even worth it
