there are lots of ways to do it, some cheaper than others. we built what we wanted to build because we thought it might be a challenge and make it more interesting. last year we put something like 150gallons of race fuel into the fairmont. most of it was wasted driving to and from the track or idling in the pits/staging lanes.

there are other options like e85,e98,meth as the only fuel.

i like the idea of rolling around on 91 octane gas 99% of the time, filling up anywhere, then having 1500hp on tap at the push of a pedal. nothing to do but push down on the pedal.

That's how it should be. When there is much more required from the driver than that, that is a sign of poor or incomplete engineering. Good job.

This is true for a street car/truck.
That is why I probably will not run meth system,nitrous,or race gas.
Now don't get me wrong I think those systems are great jus not for me at this point.Hell the truck dosent hook for **** anyways.So no need to harness every ounce of power.
I wish I could get some numbers out of this thing cause I think everyone would be pleasantly surprised with a truck that hauls *** with all the wrong parts.

I should have added rules, like in drag racing classes that they don't allow computers, or NASCAR. All of the switches and levers these guys have could be computer controlled, and they could be drinking coffee and listening to the radio while they race.

I knew what you ment.Since having a car with transbrake w/nitrous that's jus to many bells and whistles for me on the sreet.Don't get me wrong launching was fun jus not practical.

Am I correct in that there is 22 fuel injectors (present, but not necessarily functioning) on that complete intake setup, minus anything to do with the nitrous.



Sometimes taking complicated things and making them look simple is cool. But sometimes, leaving the obvious complication in full view, is equally as awesome, if not more so.

You talk about it like it was easy and simple to do, but I think I would be lost just trying to figure out where all the lines and connections go.

I have to say, reading some of your early stuff, to what you have done now, truly inspires the simple minded like me to achieve more! Congrats, thank you and please keep it up.
