I'll have to give that a miss cause it's the Nostaligia Nationals at Shakey drag racing that weekend. We always do that one and I'll be running the car up the strip aswell.

Cheers Andy

Yes Paul it was the Nytrex Nitrous solonoid. I test fired it in the pits at Shakey and couldn't get any Nitrous coming out of it? Yet the purge solonoid which is right next to it was purging pure nitrous.

So when I got home I swapped them as the purge was a Nos Powershot. It hits really hard when I tested it. Silly thing is the Nytrex one is now the purge and it purges but not half as much as the Nos one did.

I am supposed to be fitting my Headers this weekend as a buddy of mine who runs a workshop is going to help me do them using a proper workshop ramp. Then when I have that done I can cut my stock single pipe quietness pack exhaust off and put the Flowmaster with the twin outlets. Then I can see where that exits to see if those SLP tips you have will fit.

My brother is coming to shakey in his 56 Chevy Belair and he has a bigger CI engine fitted now 400ci and is hoping to improve on his best time of 13.74.

Another guy Andy who I know through drag racing is bringing his Ford Lightning also to run on the track. There is a Jap racers day on that day also so it should be good plenty of quick stuff to race!

Checkout my video that my buddy with the Lightning did of my car at Shakey, I gave him my camara, it's a bit shakey but at least I can see what the car looks like at the track. Click the link in my sig.
