the mph was not working at this track last night , but i took the car a couple months back to a different track i believe it picked up 1 miles an hour .,fuel pump is a magnafuel 500 set @26 pounds

Re: Nitrous problems ,car will not pick up
[/quote]maybe try putting some timming back into it,say 4degrees and 1/2 pound of fuel,,Now if, your planning on hitting it harder with the spray?, I would tighten the converter up alittle. keep a close eye on your plugs , hope your run ngk's ?, I like to run a #8 to#9 anything obove 150 shot, hope this will help ya. 1970 mavrick

Re: Nitrous problems ,car will not pick up
first of all is i would start out with a smaller tune ....... second the tunes you are talking about are way to rich . give S-I a call and discuss some baseline tunes before you do some serious damage ... btw what does she run n/a ?
oh and let me add one thing i run a 10 jet spread on my plate and the same fuel flow #s 5.25 and she might still be a hair rich ..........

1.26 and 1.27 same on both jet changes.
my plate does not have a lot of spray bar holes. i been thinking about upgrading the plate to see if it will help some.

Re: Nitrous problems ,car will not pick up
We did a 102n 85f, 5.5psi with a 64 hole Cold Fusion plate on the kids 383 truck, went from a 13.20 motor pass to a 11.15 on the hose, pulled 10* from a 36* total timing.
My NX plate is a 8 hole deal that uses square jetting at the 200 and up levels, but its an alky set up.
Honestly I'd box up the plate, pills, noids etc and send it all to Steve J. at I.S.

Re: Nitrous problems ,car will not pick up
Call ult. Conv. Get a true 10" conv. 4000 rpm, go with a 3.73 gear. The harder you spray the car the more it will like. Your motor passes will suffer, but she will like the spray.

sounds to me like the cam is not ideal.
