|
|
Ok I'm ready to try out my nitrous setup... But I have been told that I need a stronger fuel pump for sure! Right now I have a autozone special that holds about 9psi on a 3/8 fuel line, not sure on the gph though... I plan on running the 100 shot jetting then eventually work up to the 175
I'm running a 406sbc with some work and high compression and a 850 demon. I'm pretty sure I'm at least making 400hp+, so would a 255gph be needed or is that too small? Also I really dont want 2 pumps... |

| I have read and it makes sense running 1 pump 1/2 " or better and splitting the NOS from there. Wagontrain has a lot of education so I would wait for a post from him. |

Who do you think is gonna help do the setup...
Anyway I was really just asking what brand would be best/cheapest if there is such a brand lol and yes that was the rule of thumb he gave me so thats why I said a 255 but that might be a lil shy of what I need... |

He knows my car will be slower than his no matter what so I'm no threat to him
Well you said you weren't sure if you had what I might need. So I just wanted to be prepared, see you Saturday  |
