Question

umm i have a 1970 chevrolet chevelle ss with a zz572/720r v8 engine

i was wondering if i could put nitrous in it

is it also possible to make it to where when i use the nitrous to make it pink and black mixed???

i always just thought you put coloring die inside of the tanks and when the shoot out it would be that color!?!?!

Answer 1

Okydoky - here goes :)

Yes, you can put nitrous on it, and even a small amount (25 bhp) will greatly assist rapid take-off as the engine will generate significant amounts of low-end torque - which V8's are quite good at anyway.

There is no colouring. Nitrous oxide breaks down into nitrogen and oxygen inside the engine. That, combined with the additional fuel also injected (to stop the engine running lean) burns in very much the same way as a regualr petrol/air mixture.

As for smoke, a naughty but effective way is to have a small tank with pump (washer bottle) in the front of the car, into which you add diesel. The diesel is then sent along a copper pipe to an small hole in the exhaust pipe. Providing the exhaust is hot, you will get massive amount of smoke this way.

You could also simply use fog-fluid (as used in fog machines) which at least would be less nasty - and I think you CAN get coloured smoke if you really must.

As for damaging engines, sensible use of nitrous will NOT harm an engine, running lean harms engines - and getting too greedy with a weak engine. Most V8's in reasonable condition can comfoprtyably take 50% more power than stock **IF** you use a progressive controller and a quaslity kit (NOT NOS / ZX / etc) You MUST use a pulsoid - which is a solenoid DESIGNED to be pulsed - they last a lifetime.

the industrial solenoids the others use are NOT suitable for pusling - and start to leak - which is why they sell "repair kits"!!! What they doi not say, is that when the solenoid starts to leak, your engine starts to run lean. Bye bye pistons.

So in short, yes you can add nitrous, but buy decent kit - NOT chromed plated crap that just looks pretty.

Answer 2

Yes you can put nitrous on it. But why. That motor is capable of tearing down nitrous motors all day long. That motor could take a pretty big shot as well. Just make sure you have a wot switch or your 15000 dollar investment will go down the drain. As far as the flames go, you could probably wire in one of those flamethrower kits to your nitrous activation circut and have a colored led make the flame look colored, but you would have to get creative with the fuel system to supply fuel to it without taking any away from that big thirsty carb.

However, I probably just wasted my time cause a 70 chevelle true ss car with the biggest and badest crate motor gm offers is a gearheads dream and would probably know all this and not make reference to 2fast 2furious!

Answer 3

Why would you ruin such a classic car with nitrous? Unless you're taking it down the drag stip only there is no real need for it. Saying you want to make it like somthing you saw in a movie is really telling me that the car should be given to someone who actually would take care of it and keep it an american classic and not ruin the workmanship with something like Nitrous. Theres no replacement, for displacment.

Answer 4

Hey, you know what I have noticed.... You ask about this imaginary car a LOT in Y/A but the description keeps changing. For example, three weeks ago it had a Holley four barrel carb but in every other post it's fuel injected. Also, it changes from a 1970 to a 72 model in one post. (Let's not even get in to your "Boss") Finally, the engine size appears to fluctuate depending on the day. So...does Lego make Chevy Chevelles?

So you know what all this makes me think? It makes me think that you, my dear friend, are full of it! I think the users of Y/A would enjoy seeing a picture of this beast that you are obviously VERY proud of. Would you care to attach one?

Answer 5

Leave the nitrous alone. The damage you do to an engine out weighs the benefits.

Answer 6

to get colour put LED in the exhaust with a spray tube going in get a small bottle of nitrous. and push button igniter and there you go flames with light

Answer 7

we will in all probability have greater study and study to corroborate this, and to locate possibilities. From the 2d link decrease than: "conventional human-proper components of N2O are agricultural soil administration, animal manure administration, sewage medical care, cellular and table sure combustion of fossil gasoline, adipic acid production, and nitric acid production." In my concepts there is not any doubt that there will be alterations the place alterations could be made. this sort of technique won't ensue quickly, in spite of the indisputable fact that it is going to. As for the CFC incorrect information, some human beings merely are not in music with the information. however the people who could desire to be are greater effective stated. in spite of everything, this tale replaced into plastered everywhere. I observed it on website 17 of the L.A. circumstances, yet once you seek online you will locate this learn replaced into properly stated, and that i do no longer think of it is going to vanish every time quickly. The momentum for replace is right here, with Copenhagen on the horizon, those issues would be stated. previously sessions, for the time of and after, the tips substitute now underway is construction. there's a gathering up in Sacramento the next day positioned on by way of California Fish & sport, with the particular purpose of bringing stakeholders as much as hurry. (greater are planned). Such conferences are happening in greater aspects greater commonly, and people who're able could desire to attend public conferences like this so questions like yours could be positioned to those interior the recognize for a greater knowledgeable answer.
