who needs power adders when you have the extractor exhaust system?
my setup - 20 minutes, low heat on tumble dry.:burnout:

i use fabric softener for pre-filters.
it keeps my extractors extracting with that spring-fresh scent.

but you have to use the sheets not the liquid stuff.
but the liquid stuff would make the inside of your engine soft and cudally.:thewave::thewave:

that NOS setup... you could not pay me to even stand next to that....
Scarys me silly... I crap my shorts when I hear a backfire.. LOL
:dance:
Plus what do you need that for really. Its cool but not really practical.
Not knocking, just another thing to blow up.

nah, usually they just throw a rod out through the belly pan and hull, and fill the engine compartment with water. the only time I've ever seen anything happen up top is where we had to drill the jets out to run enough alcohol to keep them from melting, they would foul a plug allowing the cylinder to get too much raw fuel and hyrdrolock at high rpms, it causes the head to pop up and rip the studs out of the cases, or waste the mounting flange on the bigger jugs.
Was that before or after you drank all the alcohol & huffed all the nitrious:naughty: WAD:headbang::headbang::headbang:
It's pretty amazing that once you fouled a plug, the engine ran long enough to fill the bottom of the cases with enough liquid fuel to finally backfill into the top end, and then run with enough RPM (with one plug) to actually shove enough fuel on top of the piston that didn't run out the exhaust port to hydrolock it.
Amazing!
At what point did you wake up?

the fuel goes in through the transfers, matt. it really IS "amazing", isn't it.
when you run enough alcohol in a nitro setup to keep it cool, you're not running traditional jets. we throw those away, and drill out the enclosures to 1/16th or 1/8th inch. there is a "ton" (by comparison) of liquid fuel going in and up through the transfers. they're so sensitive that the sun can go down, changing the atmospheric temperature and make it run too lean. these aren't your "typical" setups, matt. get that out of your head now...LOL
anyway, the problem with nitro/alcohol setups is that when they're running extremely high rpms it's difficult to tell when you're only running on one cyl, and by the time you figure it out it's too late.
no sleepy, and no huffy here...lol

so you're saying that you used regular old 1/16 to 1/8 drill bits to drill out the jets and then the sun temp would make the ski go lean?the fuel goes in through the transfers, matt. it really IS "amazing", isn't it.

how do you so precisely drill those holes with no jets?
