Default Can't do this with an LS1....

Not that you'd want to, but I've never seen a car live as long under as much as abuse as my 00' Camaro V6 A4 did. Here are the specs -

2000 Camaro, 55k miles
tr6 plugs gapped .035"
3.8L completely stock motor, stock air lid and stock filter.
z28 take-off exhaust
Long line through the intake. Full 10lb bottle of medical grade n20.




Watch as ... well nothing really happens.

At least you could have run it down the street to see if it was faster . Were you wanting it to blow , if so ******* drain the oil out and see what happens . I used to blow old lawnmowers up that way when I was a kid. They would run forever

Oh I forgot to mention that was with no oil, and no coolant.

We ran that car for OVER an hour with no fluids, it started smoking real bad and almost caught on fire so we shut it off and put a hose to it.

10 minutes later put 1-2 quarts of oil in it, started it and after about 15 seconds the LOUD knock went away.

Nothing would kill that motor. Nothing. Even the plugs looked okay after all was said and done.
