Hydro locking will also break crankshafts as well even with bullitproof setups. watch for leaking injectors one of thoes killed the crank on a 7.3 powerstroke engine ![[Eek!]](eek.gif) , that is hard to believe. as for the 94 cobra, it was the nitrous that caused that the main bearings and rod bearings did not show any signs of detonation and as for the stock forged pistons they were in like new condition..

like i said, i dont know anything about nitrous, i haven't bothered to learn yet. No I am not making 850hp but it'll be somewhere close (and it's not a slock block either), I just don't have an exact figure yet.
BTW, when do you plan on having everything back together and running again? Also what ever happend with that guy chuck's blue big block chevelle?
Eric, yeah that was me. Guess you did know me from somewhere. How did you figure out that was me and how did you recognize me in the first place? Also where was your car, I'd like to see it run. We'll be in Vegas.
It was nice "sorta" meeting you, Chris.
hahahah, eric jerkin it.

Im just good with faces. Thats why I remembered who you were.
As for my car, I was testing in Vegas and ran a couple of ok runs. 10.00's on the motor and 9.43 on the bottle. The next day we put it back in the chassis dyno to try a different n20 plate and I guess I blew a head gasket or lifted the heasds but didnt know. It leaked water in a couple of cylinders and I didnt check it for 2 months. So, I wound up with a frozen block! So, I am down for awhile.
Damn Nitrous......LOL

yes it is rough. I am still planning on T/S. How modified are your frame rails? The tech guys are really stupid there so I bet you can get away with it and go have some fun!

you know where the stock rail comes up at the top of the rear wheel well? well right where it starts to bend out tword the tire, i cut that out all the way to the back of the car. then welded in 2x3" tube straight back, and a 2x3" tube connecting the two by the bumper. the wheel wells were moved in like 3" and all the sheet metal in the trunk is new (but looks stock because it's all undercoated).
I fit 325/50/r15 drag radials with a good 1" clearance on both sides of the tires. I did it for street racing but now it doesn't fit any "realistic" classes. Especially the FFW true street class.
