fine tuning NOS on tuneported 383

[doonjumper]

Has any one had any experince with putting a NOS kit on a tuneported 383. If so what size jets did you use. The kit comes with .70 NOS and .53 fuel jetting for 150 Hp. That is based on factory fuel pumps that dip into the 28lbs. range under hard acceleration.I think they send large jets to compensate for the lose of factory fuel pressure. I have an aftermarket pump which is set to 45lbs. and does not dip at all. When the NOS is applied the engine bogges heavily. The NOS is flowing. I think that its getting to much fuel due to the fact that the fuel pressure is not dropping and NOS sent these specific jets for a factory fuel pump which drops psi under acceleration. Does this make sense? I just want some second opinions. I'll call NOS tomorrow to be sure.

You don't want to make guesses when your engine is snorting laughing gas. If it leans out too much, you get about 3 seconds or so before the tops of the pistons become ventilated. It's a very ugly sight.

When it's working right, it's incredibly fun stuff. But I've also seen it turn a nice engine into a smoldering pile of molten metal in a single 1/4-mile run. Call the folks that made your nitrous kit and ask them what they recommend for your particular configuration. They should know how to make sure that you err on the side of caution...
