never too much nitrous
if there's a weakness in the engine somewhere you can't blame the nitrous for it... it just helps you find it.

Corpsvette, JB Weld is amazing stuff, I wouldn't doubt it if it actually worked

I think all the rod bearings are fine, but I'll go take a closer look.

a good quote i heard once...

"proper nitrous jetting is 2 jet numbers smaller than the one that broke your last ring gear."

Vinny, didn't your dash fall out on that run too? What was that all about. Atleast when you break you do it right.
