oh snap you will beat me. I can in any way spray off the line, my rear end will fall out or my shitty nittos will spin. i am gonna have to spray after 60 foot. And for the transmission I am going to have to get one quick i think it is slipping already.

koolrayz here has a bad ass trans for sale with a brake and all..he was puling the wheels with his car

 

Thats the same type of transmission thats in my car, brake and all. Sprayin77 you should look into picking that up.

Ok i guess i wont spray for a while. lol . what kind of set up do you have for your nitrous as far as retarding the timing? Is 3-4 degree out across the board or did you do a timing twister on yours?

 

Just tuned the timing down to 21 degrees and run race gas in my fuel cell. That way if I want to spray more than 150 some day I have room to do it. It only lost about 20hp from full timing so its cool.

I believe you wanted about like what 2k ? does that come with a stall?

 

not sure..but that trans is like 4800 buy itself!

 

and i think he may have had a stall that came with it, but IMO you would best get a stall that fits your combo...for best results

Yeah I just dropped like 4k with everything i have already done. I started wrong i should have done suspension first. and trans. But if i break mine it will justify buying it to my girl. lol sometimes you have to do it that way.

 

4 k in the motor, dont expect a $400 trans to live long..not bashing im just saying!

Ok thanks i will leave you alone now sorry. lol. you are just the closest to the combo i have trying to get some tips to see which way to go. thanks for your time.

 

Its cool. I looked at your setup when you first came here and its very close but with a smaller cam if I remember right.

I was just wondering if you were running the delco platinums? because i was told not to run those plugs with nitrous because they burn to hot and cause detonation. ok i will contact koolrayz. thanks

 

NO platinums at all on a spray motor, run normal plug, normal heat range just pull timing. 2* for every 50 shot you run

nx says it is 1 per 50. or just 2 to be on the safe side. cam actually wound up being 591/591 224/228 or something like that. i was going to do the magic stick 4 but i was told i would have to back cut the shit out of my pistons so i just left it alone with the cam i already had. I dont expect a 400 tranny to last. we have a transmission shop we send them to but i figured i would get a good one instead of rebuilding

I ended up breaking 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, gear before I sent it off to Rossler (dont ask how lol.) They had to rebuild it from scratch so it ended up costing me almost $4k :(

convert to a turbo 400, cheap and easyer to build, just no over drive(if budget is your thing.) 5 of the bolts line right up

you can mod it some and make the top on line up tho..

and just get a convertor that works for the ls motor(i good one) and that will hold penlty of power with the proper mods in a the turbo 400
