Question attn: ROBERT, ,RPM ? U HAD asked.

Robert on another thread you asked about 10000 rpm nitrous systems.. I found my old catalog..
PRinted in 1990 its states that in the 60's Ron Hammel was using injectors that 10000 rpm had built to own a landspeed record... And he had a dyno that could go to 4000 hp....
and in th 90's an efi system jobbered at 695.00
So I guess they were the first nitrous company to the public..

Yea, on another thread talking to dave I said that I thought my first kit was a 10,000 rpm in the late 70's. We had no set jet tables, no fpss, no bottle heaters, no window switches, no relays, no presure gauges, no tuning guidelines. Just use a hurst line lock shifter and press the button when you thought it would be good, and held it on till you thought it should be off, or you blew... Those were the days that n2o got a bad rap.

Should have seen the early dry kits. Jet your spreadbore holley to run real rich, then try to figure out how much n2o to add. Hehehehe, yep, those were the fun days, no wide bands or dynos, just a gut feeling.
