Nitrous for BABE
Hello, All. Been quiet for awhile. Tis Car Show Season! I've been busy installing a Nitrous System in my "Babe". 50hp increments up to 300hp through a 1" plate under the carb. Waiting for a custom cylintrical fuel tank being built to hold 1 gallon. Have installed bottle, solenoids, plate, WOT switch. Have almost all other parts. When all installed I will go to someone who knows Nitrous and have him tune it. Next is dash switch and MSD retard module.
Probably can't use it but it's fun watching the WOW value at car shows.

If you just want the wow factor and not the nitrous, just plumb individual vacuum lines off each runner on the intake. You can use the vacuum takeoff for PCV or whatever. The little stainless hardline to each cyclinder fools most people. A streetrodder buddy of mine always did this on his rods for the vacuum kickdown on the tranny. He laughed pretty good at all the people who thought it was nitrous.

In a fit of 16 year old genius, I looked down through the carb while cranking it to see if fuel was flowing, and it was. Flowing straight up in a vapor cloud, around my head, on fire.

Nope, Bob wants the real thing installed.
I can think of 2 places he will use it. The first, the next time we go to the drags...The second, Bob goes to a car show at Phoenix International Raceway, the fastest 1 mile oval in the world, The contestants get to drive on the track..a parade lap..generally when they pass the start/finish line most guys light them up. That's when he will hit the squeeze. Then just sit and burn....

Real Nitrous
Thanks for the interest. I want the whole system to work. I'll use 110 octane race gas for smell. When people ask if it's real I want to say yes, up to 850hp! I'll proceed in small steps with guidance.
