Just got all the parts to put a nitrous oxide system on that intake. It should add alot more power.

ohhhhhhh-- shinny -- w/ the motor lookin' that clean your going to have to post some pics of the car, thats unless you spent all your funds on the engin. lol

Now that's a six-pack to go!!

Holly Cow.

With an engine like that in it, that has got to be the fastest dining room in town.

389 tri-power WAY TO GO

looks great just keep in under 6000 rpm. i work with a guy at work that just dropped his bottom end racing his 67 at 6300 rpm. have you run the nox yet since you know the car well, would be interesting to know if the power is instant or not. thanks for the pic.

I was wondering about that too, how is the nos triggered?

Looks great btw 🙂

I have Hurst nos t-handle shifter with a switch built in. it works great!

is it a instant surge or builds power

Doesn't the NOS make the parts of the engine corrode or something? I seem to recall hearing someone say it runs cooler when you run NOS.

Wow, great lookin engine, I'll have to agree w/ sirbruski, we want pics of the car too! When I get home i'm paintin my '68 catalina, she's got a 400bb punch 30 over, mild cam and 6x heads, she's a boat but lord is she fast, I'll post pics of her when she's got a fresh coat...

There are three points. First, nitrous oxide is comprised of 2 parts nitrogen and one part oxygen 36% oxygen by weight. When the nitrous oxide is heated to approximately 572F on compression stroke, it breaks down and release extra oxygen, However, it is not this oxygen alone which creates additional power, but the ability of this oxygen to burn more fuel.

By burning more fuel, higher cylinder pressures are created and this is where most of the additional power is realized. Secondly, as pressurized nitrous oxide is injected into the intake manifold, it changes from a liquid to a gas boils.

This boiling affect reduces the temperature of the nitrous to a minus .127F. This cooling affect in turn significantly reduces intake charge temperatures by approximately 60-75F. This also helps create additional power.

Go, greased lightnin', you're burnin' up the quarter mile...Greased lightnin', go greased lightnin'
Go, greased lightnin', you're coastin' through the heat lap trials...Greased lightnin', go greased lightnin'...You are supreme, the chicks'll cream for greased lightnin'

Little GTO, you're really lookin' fine
Three deuces and a four-speed and a 389
Listen to her tachin' up now, listen to her why-ee-eye-ine
C'mon and turn it on, wind it up, blow it out GTO

lol

I have no idea what I am looking at (pat man stop laughing) but I have a feeling it goes faster than the van!!!
