Have a cobra 4.6 with a 3.4 crusher on 24 psi making about 750 rwhp on e85. but now I'm thinking of adding a 100 shot. There is a couple cars at the track faster than me and would like deep into the 9s. I Never used nitrous and been readying about it but don't see much info on crusher kits and e85 plus nitrous. So any advice and what do I need to get the most out of it. Injectors flow 2250cc and fuel is dual 400 pumps..
Side note my suspension is all stock besides some adjustable strange shocks in the back front all stock.



R/T... .476
60" is 1.638
330....4.422
1/8.....6.724
Mph...106.39

Tire pressure is 10 psi..

Go to the track and practice, and get your suspension dailed in, there is 9s as it sits, dont be so quick to add power get some seat time on that setup, should be able to get into the 6.50s at 108-110mph in the 1/8 as it sits

Op i was using Mickey Drag radials as well couldnt cut below a 1.9. I swapped to Mickey thompson stiff wall drags with a tube in them. I think the number is 3057 but i cut a 1.5 60ft straight off the trailer last week.

I agree about the slicks... A radial for a stick car is the wrong tire, and 10psi is way to low for a 275 60 radial. 15 to 17psi would have been better to keep the tire's footprint uniform.

It's almost 2000ft DA
I just ordered a teamz ss1 kit in hope it can 60 better. But car goes straight not much of twisting the chassis, but maybe bushing to worn out.
