New goodies lots of $$$$ spent, Question

This past week I had Olee @ powerbypoole.com put on a few goodies. HTT62/65/13ss turbo, ATS exh. manifold, Flux 1's, GDP intake horn, then a Smarty to go with it. Next day a Southbend D.Disc 3250, stock clutch slipped too easy. Homewrecker twisted my arm and made me get a Smarty ,and Olee said I needed one too. Love it all! Also getting used 19.5's with tires already on them with only about 10K miles. I wish we would have put ARP studs in head while it was handy, but I am told we have excellent Head Gaskets on 3rd Gen.
Question - - - - since the intake horn has 4 plugs, should I get Nitrous with a Hobbs switch to go with it?

You forgot to mention your F1 springs! I didn't twist your arm on the Smarty.I think the test drive in my truck the other week twisted your arm!

Wow, did you spend some money. Did you mod your fuel to support everything? If you haven't done that yet, theat would be next prior to Nitrous. And to be honest, before I would run Nitrous, I would seriously look at head studs...

Nice mod list. Get head studs before attempting nitrous. I had studs and still blew my gasket.





homewrecker and nelrod,


You guys going to Mopars at The Rock with us this weekend?

Definetly look at studs before the nitrous. I have the 64/65/13ss and with lots of fueling my drive pressures are getting over 65lbs with boost pressures being around 48lbs. So if you have similiar drive pressures, then the nitrous maybe all it takes to blow it. Good luck. Tac

P.S. Mopar at the Rock is going to be a blast!!!!
