Ford 87/9700 injector tips

[slimbo]

Hello all, I am trying to revive an older Ford 8700. It has set for a while and the injectors were gummed up. I have taken them apart and cleaned them. The tips that are on it now are CAV BDll150s6666. I will probably end up replacing them when I put things back together. I have read on here about people recommending putting the Mack 237 injector tips into the 401's. What is the difference or advantage of these tips over the factory CAV tips? I have also read some conflicting information on whether or not the current hold down nut will fit the Mack tips.. Does anyone happen to have a part # for the Mack tips?

What about pop pressure between the two tips are they the same? (2750 - 2800 if I remember correctly)

also,I might be able to get a hold of pistons/rods turbo ext from a 9700 and put on here.. would these same tips work then or does the 9700 use different ones?



Thank for the input.

I’ll try to look when I’m home, but there are probably larger stock tips available too.

I put them in my 9000 puller with 401 ten-twelve years ago. they are five vs. four hole IIRC. They enable pushing more fuel given higher pressure.
