I have had 2 '98 vehicles with stock shortblocks and 300-350hp worth of nitrous with over 60k miles on the clock. Might of burned a strap on a plug every now and then that's about it. Was just seeing how far I could push the stock fuel system/Walbro pump set-up.
Tip: '98 stock pistons actually have a thicker top ring land than a 2001-up.
Heres a video of my 70k mile stock shortblock/300 shot car 1.30 60 footin on the back tires. It is a prime example of how far on the ragged edge the tune was. The air was so good out there that night I actually got on the lean side and burnt my first plug (watch at the end of the pass) Notice it looses a plug before the win light comes on and it still ran a 9.70 on that pass. I just got a little greedy and really wanted to beat the guy so I jacked up my bottle pressure to about 1175 after the purge! http://www.iconautosports.com/media/...e_chevelle.wmv |
That's what I am talking about. everytime i talk about doing a 300 shot on my ls6, everyone says you'll blow it, we will see. If ya can't pay don't spray. Great run by the way, looks like it crapped out the whole plug.
