Nitrous kit im buying
Nitrous kit im buying Im buying a used kit off someone...and basically i get a dry kit(thats what i want) its only gonna be used on a couple street runs at 75shot. He has the bottle. 2 noids(1 extra) all lines, wires, switches. What else do i need? its going on a LT1. Thanks!
Since you did not say Bottle Brackets I would go with an 860 Bottle Heater Bracket combo.
If you do have the bottle Brackets then get a heater only.

You will also want a window switch to activate the system through your desired spray RPM (3000- XXXX).

Does the bottle have a gauge? You will want to have an idea of how full the bottle is (weighing it is another option).
DynoTune, Nitrous Outlet, HSW, and Nitrous Direct are all Nitrous Sponsors check out what they have for the above accessories.

Are you sure you don't want to run wet on the LT1?
Dry kits on LT1's are not as simple as they are on an LS1's. Unless its a LT1- specific dry kit with fuel pressure booster.
I'd reccomend doing a little more research before you go that route.

i want something fast and simple. its not gonna be on the car long. with a 75shot will you need a fuel pressure booster?
and also with a window switch...do you really need it? I plan on going from 2nd gear WOT to 80 right before it goes into 3rd and let off

isnt it a fuel safety switch i need? not a fuel booster? and would it be good for me to do a button and WOT switch seeing i dont wanna use a WOT switch? Like so it has to be at WOT and i have to press switch so inbetween shifts i can let off and re enable after shift.
No, a fuel pressure safety switch is different. The fuel pressure booster, ties in to the cars fuel pressure regulator and bumps up pressure when sprayiny a dry shot. (LS1's don't need that)
My reccomendation is to run the wet shot with the WOT switch and a button in-line like you described. That will work just fine

It really dosent matter if you use it once or 1000 times, you run lean once, you melt pistons.
Hook it up whatever way you want.

I would take 860s advice.
If price is a factor and you can not afford to do it right odds are you can not afford to replace the motor either.
On a LT1 I would add a wet system.
With a window switch..
The NOS dry kit will work as long as it has the FMU and fuel pump.

Iv seen a couple well reconized companys who dont include the fuel upgrade...i dont see why on a 75shot it would need a fuel upgrade at all. idk though. its only gonna be ran a couple times. prob only 1 bottle worth and the comming off. might be more hassle...
I understand what you guys are saying...but trying to keep it cheap and when i uninstall make it look like there was never nitrous seeing im hiding it from my dad. dont think im trying to be ignorent. Thanks
Well Its going to be hard hiding it with a blown up motor...... Just because nitrous cost less than going turbo or blown it still cost when doing it correctly. However it cost alot more in the long run when takeing short cuts.
Make sure the dry kit you are using has the FMU. And make sure you have enough fuel delivery..
All I can do is give you suggestions to kepp you from becoming another guy saying Nitrous blew my motor.blah blah blah. Takeing and useing the advice is up to you.
Im not trying to be harsh. Im just trying to help you out.

Listen to these guys! Do not run that setup without the line going to the fuel pressure regulator. That or do it right and go wet. Its not that tough...dont be set in your ways or you will regret it I gaurentee that.
Or...just go to the car and light the engine on fire...it will be quicker to destroy it that way.
Dont be hard headed. Do it right or not at all. You sound young...this is a lesson you should avoid learning the hard way.

Ill tell you what...It seems as though your in a hurry and want answers now. Your best bet...call one of our sponsors that does nitrous. Several posted in this thread. They will get you the info you need over the phone with prices and all.
The pieces you need are probably not all that expensive and dont add too much to the install and can be likley used with what you have.

good to hear!
But...go ahead and give Nitro Dave or one of the other sponsors a call on monday...it may be cheaper than you think for the parts. Only one way to find out right?
