nitrous converter on motor 60 ft

I have been playing with a cam only camaro with a 3200 triple disk converter, it was setup for a 150 on the launch. On motor it is getting 1.6 60's should it do better? The car has pretty much full bmr suspension and it set up for drag. The car hasnt been sprayed yet.

Mine cuts high 1.7's on the motor

And low 1.3's on the spray

Good luck with it!

Agreed. Some nitrous-specific converters will be tight (aka slow) on motor alone, but shine on the spray. My Nova goes from 1.52 60 foots to 1.46 60 foots on a 125 hit, but it's a looser 10". I'll bet there would be additional gains with a nitrous-specfic converter, but I run N/A and bracket race more than spray.

Thanks everyone. Im going to try to spray it this weekend and try it out. I tried to stall it up and before 3000rpm I pushed the front wheels through the lights.

Here are my slips on the motor and with a 200HP shot... I got the converter planning to spray a 400HP direct port, but I never got a chance to before the end of last season...
