Were staying with nos for now with this car. What do you figure the car will weigh when its done? Good choice for a tuner, A good tuner is worth every penny. Best of luck.

It will have water in the block and water in the heads, just no water passing thru the block or head surface. The up front money the way I am building this one hurts for sure. I had to sell my trailer, every extra part and tool I had nitrous related. I sold my engine, fuel system, cooling system, everything.

But, there was no way I could run mid-low 7s at 3500lbs and drive it anywhere reliably with nitrous. To be honest, in order to go any faster than I already have been with nitrous would require even more regular maintenance, and cost well over the money I have in the turbo setup already. So it was an obvious choice I should have done 2 years ago. There is no way to make the kind of power I want with a nitrous assisted pontiac. And I ain't interested in racing with a bowtie motor in my Pontiac.
