Ok single nozzle or direct port? The main benifit of low pressure is your jetting options, or between size jetting. With a standalone high or low pressure you can make adjustments to your regulator for richer or leaner. On low pressure to change your tune make a small psi change. On high pressure you must make a larger psi change to see the same effect.

Yes I have some hp settings for low psi on a single nozzle. But if you are just using a single nozzle why not just stay at high pressure and keep the standard patterns? I can give you any jetting you need for our kits. I will need to know which pump/reg and how you are planning on setting up the fuel system.

I visit another forum where Butch hangs out and it makes for some very interesting nitrous conversations.

If you are going to run a low pressure setup, get more pump then you need. A Holley black will support the 9 to 10 PSI that a NX kit requires. I personally preferred running my fuel cell with a return/bleed off to the tank. A simple 1 gallon cell will let you get a lot of passes in. I'll put my writeup back on line tonight so you can see all the details of the install. It's very easy to do and tuning it is very easy.

I agree with Dirty perfectly, the red is just not going to cut it.

Here's my writeup. I need to clean it up. But you can get the point pretty quickly.

The car will be out this year. I just spent a lot of time helping Harlan out and as a result I didn't get any time to work on mine. It should be pretty cool when it's all done. More details will come later on.

here are my thoughts holley red pumps are ok up to 200 hp but not worth taking the risk. the holley blue pumps are junk!!! well the ones that are new the crome looking ones. the old blue style were really reliable but i have had 4 crome blue pumps fail on my carbed nova. i think a much higher quality pump should be run like a bg of manga fuel. i run a product engineering they are the best quality out there!!! remember no fuel = no engine
p.s. it is not very wise to not run a regulator on any fuel pump espically one that claims it was set from factory. fuel flow varys on my things such as current and heat.
