Default Carter01 SBE Nitrous Update.....

Well folks I figured I would at least post up a rough pic of where I'm at right now with my build. As many of you know I hit a wall at the 9.50 zone with my SBE 3335lb car. At that point in time I had mainly all stock stuff like injectors, intake, tb, maf etc..

Recently I purchased a set of PRC 225 As-cast heads from Aaron at TSP and a intake combo from John Schaeffer consisting of 42lb injectors, ported Vic Jr intake with Nitro Dave spray bars and a Accufab TB. I am dropping the car off with my NA tuner today for a solid street tune then we will hit the dyno for a power tune. Once that's done i will work the N20 tune out on the track. Currently I have a 82 jet in her awaiting the track debut. Not sure what i am going to do with the old induction system but the guy that tunes also does excellent work with aluminum so i might get him to just make me a plate. Heck i might just leave it as is to get some cold air under the hood. I still have some work to do with wiring and clean-up but she is functional and ready to get tuned!

Looks good, if you have room add as much spacer under the TB as you can.

Looks good. I like the intake/TB setup. I guess that's the way to make real power.

Thanks guys!

@ATV - I have a 2 inch spacer ready to go on hence the long TB studs. However I need a cowl hood to make the 2 in spacer work. Money, Money, Money......

Good old tsp trq2 that I've been running for about 5 years. Before with the stock stuff she made 390 rhwp. I will post up both graphs once the dyno tune is complete.

Just as soon as we finish the tune, hit the dyno for a few pulls then we will be at sgmp.

As far as your TH400 goes, well that is great! 9 sec GTO here we come!

Thanks everybody, I have debated on doing this swap for years and finally decided to bite the bullet. I hope to represent well for the SBE LS world!!!
