[QUOTE=tsmith1499] I guess I'm old school. I don't believe in nitrous. If you can't build a 10 sec. motor, don't build a 12 sec. motor and then juice it and tell me it's a 10 sec. motor. I have lost too many races to guys who can't cut a decent light but can spray it in the middle to make up for their lack of skill.  Just my opinion.   Tom [/QUOTE]

I'm from the same school, Tom!! Do it all "on the engine"...."Bottles are for Babies"...
(no offense to anyone with power adders...just a widdle joke...)

Vette(s): 1981, found 1/18/17 with 13,276.7 orig miles, stored since 1984, L81, 3spd auto, frost beige, doe cloth interior, looks new, drives great! Bowling Green s/n 3052
What rear-end ratio do you have? That will make a big difference. My '81 with a .287 probably won't make 70mph in the 1/4 although I have never tried. It's just a cruiser as far as I'm concerned.
