Default low pressure single nozzle?

Sorry if its been addressed before....

Is it possible to run a low pressur fuel system on something like a single nozzle wet kit? If so, how would you calculate the jetting?

I'm wanting to take some strain off the fuel system in My GN, and I have a few spare Holley Blacks....


Thanks,


-Will

Call your nitrous kit vendor and see what jet sizes they recommend for the lower pressure ratings.

That's easy enough.....I'm trying to find out if there will be any atomization issues if you run a low pressure fuel system on something like a single nozzle....I have a calculator I use for jetting....

There might be, but with a standalone you should be able to run whatever pressure you want to.

Considering how the fuel is blasted outwards, therefore atomized, by the high pressure nitrous flow from a nozzle i'd say you should be fine. but I may be wrong.

Will,
You will be fine tunning the system for low pressure instead of high pressure. I would suggest no lower than 10 psi. I have done it many of times. Let me know if you need any suggested jetting or any advice on how to set it up.
