could theoretically happen...If the nitrous backfired into the intake, the pressure would pop it like a balloon under such high boost...He probably had a sheet metal intake too, and those things are fairly thin, since i've had one myself...I could see it happening

the double clutching thing never worked for me...I've heard thousands of pimply faced ************* tell me this, but i don't see why...As they were not driving a 1961 International Scout, why bother double clutching?

For some reason that has a habit of throwing the car off the line when cornering.

I remember after installing my twin disc clutch, i stallled like 7 times before i even got the car to move...Thing hooked after that though...
