So which is it? 3 bottles or 4? Personally, I think you're full of crap and the only reason why you're posting such nonsense is because the clubhouse is shut down. Rest assured...it WILL go kaboom if you keep spraying that stock bottom end at that level...not a question of "if" but "when".

i would say its around 3 1/2 bottles baker,,,, you said it was going to blow up a year ago,,, but its still running like a top, my plugs look great and the motor i built myself has no strange sounds after 3 1/2 bottles.

also,, its not a stock bottom end.

Why only 50? I'd add another 250 and cut the suspense.

Besides I read somewhere, driving over your crank builds character!

above all at the 250hp range 3 1/2 bottles is likely only 5-6 passes. ill wager that at the 300 level you get no more thn 5 more passes

i like rabbits..so what kind of nitrous kit is it?..i cant see poo but an old nos noid..i know many guys who claim their NOS kit makes 250 hp who change to one of my 100 horse plates and go way faster..how much faster did you car run..how big is the engine?..

i have put 200 rwhp thru a cast piston/rod/crank 400 for a long time..so a weak untuned "250" horse doesnt surprise me..it aint the parts, its the tune that counts..

when it comes to nitrous, i am the king..

How long are the lines from the solenoids to the plates? Looks like it would delay the hit or bog the motor if the fuel hit it first.

I ran a hundred shot for 50 some passes on a 61,xxx mile stock bottom end 455 with E heads dyno'd at 418 rwhp on the motor. Someone on the board told me to pull the engine and check the bottom end. I pulled the engine and the main bearings babbitt was pretty thin so that was a good call. I'll never run cast rods and pistons with a car going to the track again.

Definately. Wonder if he's had any luck yet convincing the insurance agent that his Super Stocker is equivalent in value to the first car Richard Petty ever won the Daytona 500 with? Wonder if the other agent that's investigating him for fraud has told him to fly a kite with his claim yet?

When I saw the "Hey you guys were all wrong" I thought this was going to be a thread about our favorite Pontiac Expert Bruce
