Yeah, the vert has a pump, and window switch to keep stuff safe(ish) still has a nasty lean spike when it hits, but it's the kit, i've tried to tune it out, but that NX kit I'm runnin replaces your fuel rails, and it kinda starves the injs for a sec when it first comes on. I can count the bottles I've put into it, it's already had two different kits, rightnow it's spraying 180 on all stock motor....

Can you bore out a 346 5.7 or not and if so how much??

Bill has gone oversize on a 5.7 block,i need to ask him how far.

what kit are you running? part number? never heard of what your saying? i maybe miss understanding.. i know with a fogger, putting the nitrous noid further away from the nozzle prevents that lean spike? thats cool your Vert is still running..

PN: 20220

Nitrous express NXL kit.

Ive called them, and they told me they now sell a canister to help load fuel, for when the system needs it. I guess its a common issue.

Yep, she is still kickin just fine, But I am letting her go on the 28th..

Hope my buddy Chris dont wrap it around a tree!!!

my 3v with a nx kit was the same way.i fixed it in the tune.yours also can be fixed in the tune if you do a n20 patch from efi live that gives alot more tuning abilty with nitrous activasion

I heard later models were able to go .010, again, a hone job, a lot of them needed sonic testing especially for FI or spray applications where cylinder pressure could knock a hole in the wall. =\

Its cool, this car is as good as gone (My Vert). Im putting a plate kit from Nitro dave, on the formula, once I get things back together. Should make for a good combo. Like you said, It used to be a 4L60 car!! lmao.. we will see. once she goes.. Yeah I am going to need something that can hold up.
