Default I asked my engine builder, do you agree with this ring selection for 250 nitrous.

First off I wanna say this guy has been doing this for a long time and has many 7.xx second 1/4 mile cars. Anyhow I asked my engine builder like Gregrob on this site always tells me to do!!

I told him I planned on spraying a 250 shot on top of my already 470bhp engine.

I first asked him about the Hellfire rings. He mentioned how they seem to have a hard time sealing and are hard on cylinder walls. Which we all know. But he also thinks at a 300 shot and above the Hellfire should be used, but I'm fine with these Speed Pro Moly rings at the right gap for a 250 shot.

What do you think?

First off you should take back your comment on my transmission thread. If you go back and read what I replyed to you, you will see I already tried getting a hold of my transmission guy. Also apparently you have never seen me. I'f you were standing next to me you would not be acting like this one bit. Your like some of these people on these internet forums that think there the sh*t, because they think there bulletproof being miles away.

not sure about those hellfire rings but I used some moly rings and file fitted them myself to what I heard was decent, and I plan on maybe doing 150-200 shot at some point, I think I should be alright.

yeah but his car makes 350tq yo and runs mid 13's dawg with a baby cam and no other mods. I would trust his advice cuz he posts a lot and does his own tuning to his car, geeeee-unit!

Your an idiot. Anybody want to see a pic of me to see why I said what I said? I'm sure nobody does. Anyways dude, when I built my first engine I got everyone's opinion. I looked to see what worked best in different people's engine. Everything possibly I could do I did. Because of the money I was going to put into it. And the outcome was me making one heck of an engine that lasted. Especially for being the first engine I ever did.

So please leave me alone. Could you also reply to let me know you are going to leave me alone?

Thanks man. Oh yeah I think it was you who told me to get total seal. Please don't take offense to me not getting them. I bet they work great but they were I think $300! I was thinking crap. haha So I just told my engine builder to choose some for me.
