Default 2 stage setup question

I was working on a N2O C-5 panel for a mutistage setup, made me wonder...

On the two stage (I am sure it can be done many ways)...
Do most run the two stages from one bottle or is a separate bottle better for each stage? If one bottle I take it would just be a T or Y fitting inline to the two different stages?

Thinking of doing a small dual nozzle dry (75) and Wet plate (75) now (oh the insanity of all the choices!). I think the Stock 99 injectors and fuel pump should handle that (75 Dry)...and the stock C-5 Fuel Pump swing the rest on the wet side (75 Wet).

Anyone with a C-5 Vert will a 15 pound bottle fit (I know the 10 does) in storage area in the back?

One bottle and a -4 line will supply your needs fine. I think your right and ok on the rest. Interested in a dual stage sw panel, for sure.

Still in work...


Of course I will probably have to ditch the C-5 Corvette logo and the word CORVETTE before a GM lawyer see's it

Now need to find out about a 15 pound bottle...

Thanks Robert Your passion for the dry shot I think has many coming around.

Jim,
I have 2 15# bottles and one will not fit in the recess. Here is a pic of my mock up orientation of the two in the back. I have 2 because of the 3 stages. I have 2 dry plumbed into one bottle and the wet into the other.

BTW, the bottle are off to Chad for painting to match the engine.

Nice sw panel, maybe a Z06 logo? A buddy is running a 15lb'er in the storage well. What he did was to make and carpet a box/stand that fits in the lowest part, then mounted bottle cross ways. This works with have mech valve/gauge above storage (to long for everything to fit down in hole. Then turn bottle 45* towards front so pickup tube is correct for picking up n2o under axcceleration. I have a pic I will try to find. It looks nice/good, imo.

Here's my current set-up in Z06 (a few changes since this photo). Prob won't work for conv because of top storage?

Then this was my coupe set-up, much father back compared to my Z06, might work for ya.

Thanks guys!
Is the trunk area on the vert the same as the Z-06 or the Coupe?
If so I am thinking 15 pound bottle now and two stages (small). Throw in the Mopar 402 Carbed Stroker and I will have Dry EFI, Wet EFI and carb expierence under the belt

Z-06 Logo will need to find...but I can certainly switch it.

I am gonna PM those I am working on panels for a link to my website, it will have different panels currently in work. I drew the switches from memory (I am not home so I cannot measure the stuff), but I need to double check and see if they are rendered to the correct size.

I will look for the Z-06 logo and render one with that.
