yes sir- 19lbs injectors dont help a bit- ummm what you could do is get a bigger fuel pump (walbro 255lph for an LS1) and it will help on like 125 shot and bellow on wet kit but i dunno about the Dry gl w/ it- mine should be finished tommorow (installing e-fans, 180 t-stat, and new CF noids and NX nozzle)

i have seen 150 spray on about 4 or 5 retard timing and new fuel system- stock 4.3L block can handle around 400whp- But as far as stock fuel system there are guys running advanced timing on a 100shot on stock 4.3L and they have been doing it for a while, not saying its smart- but when i go to a 100whp shot im gonna get a dyno tune or a wait4me tune- the 4.3L is strong but the fuel system is the weekness-
umm check out the 2114 thread on s10forum.com- you have to convert an edelbrock 2114 carb intake manifold to mpfi w/ bigger injectors and tune-

Well i finished the install and went out to the street races earlier this night. I sprayed a 80 shot of Dry nitrous on my truck. My only mods are- a K&N style cone filter, modified intake tube to make the MAF sensor on the other end of the intake tube and installed the nozzle right after the filter, NGK TR6 spark plugs, I also got a chance to go to a muffler shop at the last minute to get a bullet (glasspack) muffler installed with a turndown tip in place of the stock muffler before the races. Everything else is stock, tune, fuel, wheels, tires, etc.
I was really, really impressed with the V6 on nitrous! The first time i hit the button, the bottle was warm with great pressure, I launched the truck at 1,500 RPM and it launched really good on stock rims/tires. I hit the button at 2,200 RPM on first gear and it felt like the truck was on steroids or something! It was fun, I raced a few trucks and cars, most of em V8's and wooped them
The exhaust does sound gay but I just wanted to get a quick way to get extra flow out the exhaust. Its fun though to drive nonetheless, I cant wait for a V8 swap though. I'll try to get some pics up. My laptop was stolen at my parents restaurant when they broke in last night around 1am. Its sucks cause I had a lot of information there including all my passwords and crap. So im trying to remember some stuff i needed that are important. Luckily my sister donated a laptop of hers to me
I'll also keep u guys posted this sunday i plan to go to a 1/8th mile track here see what it does NA and N20
