Gosh, all of you have scared me so badly I think I will put the wet kit back on the shelf. Don't they say think outside the box to find performance others have not? How about just the other corner of the box? I always cut my lip when I try to lick the envelope. Twelve years ago I had a combo on my oil-cooled, but I never pushed the button. I think it is time to give it another try. Now where are those Tiger stickers?  :-D  Packard, that's the secret word, Groucho (Slim) did the little birdy come down and give me $$  ?

Larry, you ain't scare't of nuttin'... we all know that.  Yep thinking outside the box and in the corners is how your and many other's records were set.  There is not easy path for anyone looking for it, there is a path, it is not well marked and shit lurks at the dead ends....  :roll:  Those seeking the easy path often find the cliff, more than once  :-o  Jump in the fray, I think I will jump back in myself... We still have a couple of large bottles of juice if the guys have not filled too many party balloons.

SSR Jon, you should at least match the first letter of the swear words with the first letter of the substitution, it is easy with cars, use the Automobile Dictionary if you need to....
And under that premise, Simca happens, so Dodge the bad luck if nobody gives a Ford who you Plymouth off, they are probably Abarths anyway.

Anyone play with propane as the "wet" component for nitrous?

It's common in the diesel world, and I've seen a few gas street cars at the drags doing it.

If I decided to put a small shot of N2O (50HP  to 100 HP plate ) in my lil 255 SBC motor, what intake/exhaust valve material would be  more suitable for N2O SS or Ti ?

It's Crazy!!!!   :mrgreen:


Don't know if this is reasonable, but it's within my budget....................

I will be putting together my low tech flow bench this weekend. I will take a filled 5 gallon bucket and put each individual jet (pill) on a hose attached to it and use a stop watch to measure the flow rate and see if there are differences.  :| :? :|  I kind of feel stupid, but I guess I have to start somewhere. Guess I could always use it to do Colonics  :-o
