The sureflow operates at a 6:1 injection ratio as does a B code. The internal components are much lighter than the B code. Spring rate is also much higher per length of stroke so time refill/evacuate is reduced.

Its refill rate is much higher than an A code or B code, and its empty rate is much faster than the B code or Hybrid.

Thank you. That is by far the best description I have heard of these injectors.

Just by some quick calculations it would seem that a set of 225/100/% would deff require a hpop upgrade to maintain "good" icp.

Does anyone have any Dyno #'s to go with these sure flow injectors?

Wonder what a sureflow 200/200 needs for oil.

A "hybrid" 200cc injector is a custom cut intensifier piston to allow a shorter stroke than what a 238cc hybrid has.

The 200 is perfect for the customer that want under 500 up and doesn't want to purchase an aftermarket hpop. We have seen 3000 psi icp With a stock 17* hpop.
Right on, great info! 3000icp at what DC?
Sounds exactly like what i need. 200/200 hybrid
I wouldn't advise a 200% nozzle with that small of a CC. Might as well do 300cc if you want that 200% nozzle.

Definitely good information, I just wasnt willing to post it myself as I wasn't sure how much information people are sharing in the injector world these days.

Please clarify........
I thought a b code was 5:1, an a code was 7:1, I'm thinking thats a typo?

Time to evacuate is determined strictly by nozzle size and icp? or am i missing something? Always looking for more affordable options, for sure!
Are these using a "special" nozzle or is the faster refill/evacuation rate referring to the fuel/oil side mods?

A standard 7.3 injector no matter if its an AA or AD etc is 7:1. The 5:1 plunger and barrel is from the large body injectors of a DT 530. There for you get a hybrid from using the b-code plunger and barrel (5:1) in the a-code injector body.

You lose some nozzle pressure with the
Weaker 5:1 ratio but you can put out more fuel (cc) per-stroke of the plunger and barrel.

A 6:1 custom made plunger and barrel is kind of a medium of the two. It will out put more fuel per stroke than the 7:1 but its nozzle pressure is higher than a 5:1.

The cc of fuel per 1000 stroke is basically the area of the plunger face mulpilied by the total stroke of plunger. You can physically measure them and get a good accurate reading of what the injector should be able to flow in a perfect situation. IE: the 300cc injectors that I last built measured 327 but actually flowed 318 average. You will have some loss depending on your nozzle size and varies other parasitic factors. In the end when someone rates and injector it typically will not be that exact. Some peoples 300/200 may flow 290 and others flow 310. You stroke them by the length of the intensifier piston. There are numerous ways and combinations and most everyones are a little different.


Im no expert but maybe that clarifies to some.

And you have a manual tranny so...

Just saying I was not impressed with the HP output for a 200cc injector.

the stock nozzle plays a large roll. No way can you empty a 200cc injector with a stock nozzle in a reasonable pulse width.

I honestly wouldnt consider that injector to be much more than a stage 1 A code.... other than operating more efficiently. But it would surprise me if he was using more than 160cc of the fuel available.

Agreed... Which is why I think its asinine to put a stock sized nozzle on anything but a stock injector.

Only reason Chelseas AC's dont have a 100% nozzle is we were under a time crunch.

So, in theory, the best of both worlds. Is this a hybrid or bcode nozzle then? As that, from my understanding is what actually controls flow rate? Paired with the 6:1 ratio, which helps maintain better injection pressure?
I'd like to see some dyno numbers with a bigger nozzle.

A hybrid is a cross between a standard a-code injector and a b-code plunger and barrel. The sure flow is neither, it is its own version. It is in between the hybrid and standard injector types. A good all around injector but mainly not for all out performance.

Quick clarification 7:1 is an A-code, 6:1 is a B-code, 5:1 is a hybrid.

Just because an injector has a lower injection ratio doesn't mean it will have a lower injection pressure under certain injection conditions. As ICP increases and the injection speed increases - you get a drop in oil pressure due to flow through the poppet of the injector - this pressure drop can be high enough that the lower injection ratio injector with its lower oil volume (and consequently flow) requirements can get a higher oil pressure to the intensifier.

If all else is equal on a pair of injectors except for the injection ratio - if you take the ICP high enough - you will get more actual fuel injection pressure at the tip on the lower injection ratio injector. Under low ICP conditions the higher injection ratio injector will have the higher injection pressure.

Hope that makes sense... lol
