396, 408, whatever, it's a good piece of hardware don't kid yourself.

 

Damn Wayne you built junk too

 

One day we will get serious and build a race car.

 

id guess im 100 more on motor with minimal tuning on motor i went 9.7 141 at 3360 pounds. so im a little lighter and a little more motor power

ATV, whats your car weigh this season?

 

3420.... we got 300 lbs out over the winter

We have almost matched our best MPH from last year with ALOT less N20.
Last year 28 jets in the Direct Port and 72 jet in the single nozzle = 149.5 mph
This year 28 Jets in the Direct port ONLY it went 147.8 mph.

It has some potential if we dont blow it up first

 

Everyone builds 408's .... I wanted to be different.

 

Thanks!
Its a nice lil combo. The heads and intake seem to work good together, I got lucky there.

 

That intake you have is

I wish they still made those things, I'd like to see how the 240 head would like that.

 

I think the confusion here is this..

Brad is saying he has factory suggested jetting from NX. NX comes up with this jetting from flowing there product.... According to NX this jet is a 100hp...


Eric and others are saying... OK yes NX may say its a 100 shot but to gain those times the set up is picking up more than a 100 hp off there suggested jetting..


Seeing bigger HP gains from factory sugested jetting is not unheard of. Some applications work better with nitrous and will see higher HP gains on the nitrous than a less efficient set up may. So a jetting that may be a 100hp gain on one motor may gain a great deal more HP on the next.

For example. I used one of NXs plate's on a 5.0 mustang. I had jetting in there for 150hp and gained 235HP. If the 235 hp was to big of a gain for the motor that was in there I would have just pilled it down to the HP point I was happy to add to the motor..

One you reach a certain point and have more of a serious car than the average street/ strip car going by HP numbers in nothing more than a factory suggestion to start tunning. This is the reason why alot of the big racers will never say I am running X amount of HP on the nitrous. Instead they say I have X jet in there.. The reason for this is they really have no idea how much exact HP the car is making. They know that the tune up looks good and that X jet is suppose to be around X amount of HP...

Its all just a starting tunning point..

Everyone is right as far as there stance here in this discussion...

Dave

 

Bingo. thats why we always just put the rwhp number for the shot not the recomended rwhp number.... Like the old TNT 150 shots that made 180rwhp on stock ls1's

 

Well TNT jetting was even off on stock motors... If you did the math on the jetting it was easy to see why... But hey people were always yelling man this kit is awesome!!! I made 200hp on a 150 jetting.. Wooo woooo!!!! lol

Dave

 

durrr Dave we know all the above now, thats why i know its a 130 shot. lol


thanks for the info

 

Brad Im still waiting for Pictures...lol

 

i sent you a bunch of them.
i had my cousin send them.

i will try to get them again.

 

Ok. As soon as I get them I will put Grant on top of it..

Thanks
Dave
