    Keep your stock nozzles. They match your pistons.
     
    mtoo and SAR Thank this.

    I have a 1995 w9 with 3zj. I overhauled it with the pistons according to the serial number. I had the injection pump rebuilt to stock specs. I put the marine nozzles in and don’t do it, they trailed smoke too much and the motor didn’t “knock” right imo. I put reman cat nozzles per the serial number, turned the screws a couple turns and it runs fine.
