its a 4AN line with a 3AN nut on one end to attach to the plate.

You will also need a new fitting for the solenoid....I am assuming the solenoid has a 1/8npt port...

well i guess im retarded. my old nitrous line was a #4 with 3 nut on one end, so thats not the problem., i took the solenoid apart again and clean as a whistle. i guess the next step is to try a #6 line from the tank to the solenoid instead of the #4 i have now. if all else fails i will try a smaller shot and see what that does. any other ideas?

have you tried a consumption test yet.....this would let you know if there really is a restriction on the nitrous flow?

might be better to do the consumption test without the car running...just pull the plate off and flow the nitrous side.....you need to check if its a nitrous flow issue or mechanical.

well changed to a number 6 line from bottle to solenoid wednesday and put a smaller shot. 82 n 73 f and made 459, thats up from the 433 with the 102 n jet ! it was a lil rich yet so i put in a 71 fuel jet and made 484, still just a tad rich but the plugs looked good so i left it there. went to track thusrday for street machine nationals and got rained out, camped out ran friday right off te trailer and went a 6.55 in eighth at 104.07 with a 1.3615 60ft, as usual wheels in the air. messed with the 2 step and brake and got worse, so i went backwards and just upped the 2 step from 3000 to 3500 and went 6.53 at 102 with a 1.33 60ft,(i was told on the back tires but i will have to wait for pics to prove it) checked bottle and it was empty, got a lil left in her!! hoping for nines still with this motor before the new one goes in, and this was on a 275/60r15 m/t drag radial at that
