    Docs is a nitrousd big block. That said, Larsen and Lutz are faster than them as are quite a few cars from Texas... That actually do get driven..

    cant wait for both movies, rush and the snake and mongoose, Yes, this one might be a turd, but it might not, also, its a feature film about DRAG RACING. a major gamble for any producer/film company to be sure, so, if this one tanks...what are the odds of another, better movie about drag racing ever getting made?

    Ditto. I'd puck the guy in the mouth for snakin me like that.

    Lean = death. Lean it out and your gonna blow your junk UP! Like I said I'm planning on a plate and fogger system on my mill, 250-300 fogger shot and a 100 shot on the plate

    I get a rise out of the folks who act like running lean is only dangerous running nitrous... Turbos or superchargers do exactly the same thing as nitrous does - more air in. Run lean under boost and your gonna have a bad time. Hell run lean ANY time and your gonna have a bad time.

    Like these.

    Just about any small tire door slammer class car. Ie Xdr/tt5 or x275 or outlaw 8.5

    Thank you bill for that. Fully plan to run a fogger system and a plate shot on the small block I'm putting together. And like I've previously stated either a faulty, or worst case completely missing pop off valve is the only real possible culprit

    N2o is NOT flammable! It is an OXIDIZER! The "explosion" in question of that mustang would have involved no flame, but a very very rapid expansion of gas in a confined space

    Okay.... Not sure what the Hindenburg has to do with nitrous oxide... Which isn't even flammable, but an oxidizer... You skip your Alzheimer's medsagain Greg?
  17. MachinistMark
    Bingo. Its pretty much the only possible cause

    Nos is a brand.... N2O is a gas. And yeah nitrous bottles (any pressurized vessel) and heat is bad trouble. I get a kick out of the street race guys heating their bottles with propane torches.... Then I get the hell away from them!

    Love 2k clears. Use nothing but.

    Turbo or super.

    A-yup. Unless it has the 4-7 firing order swap or the 2-3... or both. 18726543 for the 2-3 and 4-7 swap done. smoother running engine and you pick up a few hp... mostly done on full tilt set on kill race engines

    Torque steer is a front wheel drive only, phenomenon
