Nitrous underhood pics of my S600 setup

Here are the pics you guys asked to see. I have a couple underhood pics of my nitrous setup. The two solenoids are mounted to existing bolts. My button and toggle switch are primitive but they work great. Let me know if you have any questions. I didn't include a pic of my trunk....everyone knows what a nitrous bottle looks like.

The fuel supply was just there? or is that a service port (fuel pressure)?
150 shot, pow.

Stephen tune that thing on the dyno. You will probably end up with like a 26-28 fuel jet and pick up some more power. I think 10.50's are very doable with your set-up and some tuning.

Yes, the service port is there at the end of the fuel rail. Just remove the schrader valve and connect the 4AN line and you are done. It is exactly like the fuel rail on an LS-1 powered vehicle. This kit is one that was originally on a '97 Vette.

I agree with the jetting issue because of the difference in fuel pressure between the LS-1 vehicles and our MB's. The 100 shot used a 31 pill for fuel and the 150 uses a 33 pill. I may try my local dyno just to get air/fuel data because they had no idea where the rpm lead would be retrieved. Your optical pickup and reflective tape deal seems to be the solution. Who knows if the shop here has that capability. I'll call them to see.

I think that's the only way, we tried to dyno a new cl65 and could not get a stable tack signal anywhere. Maybe removing the filter box will let you tap into the coil pack wire with the smaller pick-up. My buddy was pressed for time so we used the optical pick-up.

did this allow you to get a TQ #?

Yes on a dyno jet if you have tach signal you get a torque reading. It made 520 rwhp and 660 + torque bone stock.

I think dynos work from the premise that once you know wheel horsepower the torque is calculated from the rpm of the peak horsepower. So, if you don't have an rpm lead you can't get a torque value. Check out this link that is interesting http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/...ls/torque.html. Put a few different values in those cells and you can get a good estimate of how that works.

actually it's just the opposite...dyno's measure tq and then do simple math to give a hp reading. tq is an actual measurable value whereas engine hp is an arbitrary, man made value extrapolated from an equation of tq x rpm/5250.
