you know those turbos and prochargers are easier on parts than spray. I'm building my 511 with future procharger or turbo in mind. I hear people say that all the time......."oh, boosted power is easier on the motor than other power"......bullshizzit!!! 1000 hp is a 1000 hp and it doesn't matter to the parts how you get there

Maybe it hits the ground more softly if it comes outta a turbo motor than a nitrous motor?

My thoughts on this thumper is more guy's respect you and your car at running 6.15 NA than will if it runs 5.80's on nitrous. I'm in the same boat running 6.004 NA and trust me I will get her in the 5's NA. I truelly believe your car helps promote your carb building business as it is right now. A little more work and tuning and you will be there

Why spray a car that already runs good?.........Simple answer is because it runs better. Just got back from the track helping a customer. 2900lb Mustang on 29.5s with a 370" small block. Ran some nice easy 5 teens How much to come help me do that?... on 26's

Put some teflon tape on those NOS fittings and you "NOS HEADS" will think clearer. Any monkey can run 5's in a big block Dart without a power adder. LOL. Especially one that has gone 6.15 already. Save the NOS for 4.90's-5.40's
