Thats neat, I have a carburabtor ontop of a Air gap Intake and I was wondering how could I use nitrous b/c I already have clearance issues. So did you just drill a hole through and use the pipe or did u make the middle pipe yourself?

it's all custom made. If your interested let me know and i can see what he charges to do it.

it's all custom made. If your interested let me know and i can see what he charges to do it. I ran his custom TPI plate last year and went from 13.7 to 11.91. I'll be testing this in a few weeks.

Wow, Im running a 406 with ported Sportsman 2 heads so I should be in the 12's maybe high 10's or low 11's with Nitrous.

BTW was that a 150shot of nitrous? DO you have any more pictures? Plus is one line Fuel and the other nitrous or both nitrous?

those times before were the bolt on TPI. I achieve 110% out of the car by spraying off the line with a WOT switch. I don't use and RPM switch. Most prefer to do this , but i don't.

Yes it's one line for nitrous and one for fuel. If you sprayed a 150 kit off the line and didn't spin, your chances of a high 10 sec pass are good. I always use race gas with the 150 shot.

I'll get more pic's and post them .

How do you get the Nitrous and the Fuel in at the same time? Doesnt the Nitrous have 10X more pressure and would override it and force the fuel from entering?

So you use Nitrous off the line? I thought one could use nitrous after the 60ft or even after that to prevent excess tire spin? IS that with an Auto Corvette or Manual? If its auto you power launch at 3000rpm?

no, no light84.

this is just like any plate system. The top bar is for the nitrous and the bottom is for the fuel. When nitrous ( 800-100 PSI) comes out the holes drilled in the bar ( right above the fuel holes) it sprays across the fuel bar with the approiate holes in it to create an atomization of nitrous and fuel. They each have a seperate tube for them to go through.

I run the M&H muscle car tire ( in jegs) not that i care for Jegs. Their the 305 40 16 and their right on the stock rims. My car is an auto and i activete the nitrous through a WOT switch. So from idle i just floor the car and i'm spraying right out the box. It's the only way to achieve 110% effiency. I personally don't believe in RPM switches. Many differ from me on that opinion.
