Pics of dual 15lbers on the deck! Finally gettin around to puttin the pics up, the only thing I didn't finish yet is doin the blow down tubes, waitin on the fittings and steel braided lines to come in, gonna put a fitting thru each side of the driveshaft hump and run steel braid from the bottle to it, should look pretty good, the regular blow down tubes didn't reach to the floor, so it was the only way I could think to do it.
Had a buddy weld some bolts upside down to the deck back there to mount the bottle brackets, workin like a charm so far!

Thanks guys, it's funny, the bolts was actually kind of my fiancee's idea, when I was thinkin of how I could do it, she was like can't you put something on there that you could bolt the brackets too and then puttin the bolts upside down just popped into my head, I was thinkin about usin jb weld at first, cuz I didn't know if you could weld there w/o hurtin the fuel tank, but a bunch of my buddies said the jb weld wouldn't hold and that it would be ok to weld it.

Cool, that's how I roll. Also, dual bottle heaters. On my blow downs, I tee'd them together and stuck in a bulk head connector and ran em out the center rear tire compartment with one hole. A very clean trick install.

Hey robert, if I was in the market for a 90/90 with a direct port setup, what kind of deal could you cut me? I just pulled my plugs to put my street plugs back in, and the first one on the drivers side was gone again, not as bad, just the strap this time, guess it's a good thing I launched right and had too abort the last run! Have no idea if the stupid t-brake sticking on the first run the last two times out and the nitrous hittin on the t-brake is hurtin that plug and then it's goin out a couple runs later or if the nitrous/fuel isn't gettin distributed right or when I took out the plug, i'm gonna have to start pullin that plug after each run and see what the hell is goin on! But now i'm ruling out the injectors, cuz I took the extra 50 horse that I had added to the dry out and added it to the wet and never had a problem with that dry jet in there, so maybe i'm just sprayin too much w/o a direct port
What I really need is a damn sponsor, this is gettin too expensive, ahhaha!

You are using #7 or did you go to #8 plugs? Yea, that's a possible that your spraying some past the front cly at your hit? How far away is your nozzle(s)? Dual nozzles will give better distribution. Maybe do a run on new plugs and shut down at end of run and take a look at that plug and a couple others, this can tell ya what is really happening in that hole. Charlie our mod is the ls1tech resident plug guy, and sure he would help read them if need be.
On the DP yea we may be able to work something if your serious? As for a sponsor, I had passed on a sponsor offer some time back from a big dog, but maybe in the future. I do have sponsor on my nitrous Harley though (ND), and it's much more cost effective for going fast.

i always shut down right after the traps, i bring a coupler plugs with me, pull a couple,, throw the others in, drive back, and read them.
i can help out with reading the plugs (i did it once or twice. lol)
sounds to me like the 300 worth needs to be evenly dispursed.
im a big plate system guy on carb setups, but the lsx intakes have that flaw in them with the way the air hits it.
