I've heard that fuel puddling becomes an issue once you start spraying 250+ through a plate on that style manifold. That'd be my concern.

The rings were gapped for nitrous and the cam I was told should proform pretty well with nitrous and won't be a dog n/a

So you guys think I should upgrade to a direct port style kit?

I think you're going to need a broom for that 10 bolt on your first pass.

lol we have beat the crap out of these ten bolts and they don't seem to give up!! that ten bolt has seen numerous 500 whp passes and still there that's not the only 10 bolt we have done it with. as long as these thing dont see a 6 speed or a trans brake there good in my opinion....

saying it survives the hit of the new build. what u guys think this will put dow and or et...

I hope you're right. I'm looking to be around 500rwhp and hope it holds together for a little while. I have 3.73 gears and a pinion supported brace, auto car on a ET Drag, so that should help a little too with the soft sidewalls.

as long as you don't shock that tire to hard you'll be good wheel hop is what really tears things up. t/a on the my sig 6.60 and i have left on trans brake a couple time just to see. i have torn tq arm and broken the drive shaft but no diff braking here...

Thanks man that was my old daily driver slash drag car I completely gutted it weighed 3250 with me in it but not a/c and no p/s sucks especially here in Miami so Im now building a 98 ss camaro with some weight reduction but nothing crazy

I hope it holds for a while I've made a couple passes with 1.5 60fts so we will see if it goes il get a 9inch

Anyone have any expierence with a nos plate for 200 shot?
Is a fast really worth it?
My old build was 228r cam and same heads on an ls1 but was lighter weighed 3250 and ran 7.1s on motor 1/8th mile @95 hope this runs better

Update i finally started the car and drove it around the block sounds really good its on street tires and doesnt hook at all cant really feel the power sence it breaks loose so eazy just bought some m/t drag radials gonna bolt them on tomorrow and take it for spin im riding around with the same tune from the ls1 head cam that i had before so it mite still need some tunning for the bigger cube and cam but idles very good so far

I have done a half dozen passes (1.48) on my 10 bolt. Its still hanging in there for now. 10.82@123

10 bolt here. 3.73 thick gears. Ultimate girdle with brace. Solid pinion spacer. ARP 2.5 wheel studs. 275 60 15. 4000 ptc nitrous converter. I get against the converter as hard as possible. Been 10.28 so far on a 1.4on 185 worth of nitrous. Numerous 1.4x 60s. I have added a 2 step on the foot brake and about 20 more worth of nitrous. Relocation bracket for torque arm will be here tomorrow and TRZ relocation brackets for lca. I think I will peak at 10.0-10.1x. 3500 race weight. Im using 2 nozzles for 2 stages.

A buddy uses the nos plate. He is spraying 175 on bro plugs, ms3, 243,th400 in a sand drag truck in 4 low. No problems and is just off the track record for street.

I think you should go 9s on 200. I would skip the nos plate. You will need big solenoids and a sho line. I would get the nitrous outlet 2 stage plate for two stages and a nos mini. This will help the rear and power management. I have this same setup minusthe plate and itworks great. Im going to have to get off the coin soon for the nitrous outlet 2 stage plate.

Good luck. Sounds like a fun build.

Yeah, I wouldn't go off of hearsay with nitrous. That will get you in trouble real quick. When you get to a shot over 200, the things you REALLY need to start paying attention to, is nitrous distribution, THE TUNE, a well set up window switch, and a nice progressive unit. Throwing a 250 hit at it on a single stage that comes on at 3000 can be a recipe for disaster. That is a HUGE torque hit on the motor. I have a buddy that is finishing his build for a 250 hit progressed on a SBE ls1. He will be in the 9's for sure, but we will try to keep everyone updated.

If it helps you out at all, the buddy I was reffering to ran 7.2@97 on motor only, then he went 6.47 on only a 125hit. His is a th400/9" car however. Prob about 3500RW.
