Best setup for what purpose? Ease of install? Most reasonable price? Max power? Street only, Street/strip, or race only? How much extra power? |

Its a stock bottom end, offy intake and header. What's the best for a HP and et gain? Plate or fogger? |

Plate is probably best for what you want. Easier and cheaper. Stay in the 75-125 HP range. Remember, if you haven't milled the head, the engine will be OK with 87 octane, but will need higher on nitrous. |

What would you say is a good kit to run? I'm not looking to spend a whole bunch of money on a kit. |

I have a NOS fogger system on my 66 Barracuda. Works great, but, by the time it was complete, with all the necessary support stuff (fuel system upgrades etc) Cost is over $1,000 I also had a old Compucar plate system on my 66 Valiant. It was bought in the 1980's, and was not adjustable. I wanted to increase the shot, and called Compucar, to see if I could just drill the holes in the bars larger, and to what size. They told me not to even bother. Just send everything back to them, and they would check/repair my solenoids, and replace the fixed plate with an adjustable plate, at no charge. They said all their nitrous stuff has a liftime warenty. All I would have to pay for would be the lines between the solenoids and the plate (the old plate had them mounted right on the plate), the jets, and shipping. I sent everything back to them, and got the new parts back in 8 days. New plate, lines, my old solenoids, 5 sets of jets, shipping paid by them. I called them back to tell them I owed them money for the extra parts, and shipping, and he said "Merry Christmass" So I would reccommed you give Ernie a call (web site leaves something to be desired). http://compucarnitrous.com/index.php?op ... &Itemid=56 |

Okay. I was looking a a cold fusion kit but I'll be sure to check them out before I do anything. I have a stock cam, who makes a good nitrous cam? And my head is milled a little bit so running race gas on the spray is a good idea or would 93 be good? |

You can spray on 93, but your wallet will like it better if you use 100 or better. Also, if your top ring gap is not opened up for nitrous I would stay below a 100 shot, especially with cast pistons. Get used to reading plugs too. https://vimeo.com/46380513 You will also need to know your fuel pressure because your tune-up will change with fuel and nitrous pressure changes. Fuel rich is just as destructive as fuel lean. Nitrous is a lot of fun, but it is not "plug and play" |
