I think you might be asking for trouble putting juice on a motor with cast (hypereutectic) pistons, especially one with pretty weak stock heads & cam, too. I'm not trying to discourage you at all, I just don't want you to blow an engine. There's a LOT more power to be had just getting a roller cam conversion, heads, intake, and some headers. In your case, an Edelbrock carburetor too. At least that's what I did for my '79 Capri. http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif

Like Capri306 said, there are other alternatives other than N2O... If you want to become mechanically familiar with a performance car, pull the motor, and build the engine, the way you want it...
you have a few years to get it done (especially if your 13).... Not knowing how responsible your father is, but i sure as heck would'nt let my rookie driver, 16 year old son, into a car with N2O.. asking for nothing but trouble!!! If you want to build a good performance motor and advice or tech questions, this is the place!!! good luck.. ------------------ Black,84 GT,ground effects,shorty headers, 'open' dual exh.,302 HO(no pollution control crap),T5,89 ported heads,edelbrock Performer manifold, Edelbrock 2122 cam,600 Holley, high volume oil pump... Some day (3:73 gears & N2O)!!! will this ever end???? |
