So as most know, I pulled a 2.3 Whippled 4.6L from the car almost 2 years ago and built a 572 CID big block ford to replace it. I also replaced the 4R70W with a ATI power glide transmission and replaced the 8.8 with a ford 9 inch. A 8.50 cert cage was added to the car, and the car went through quite a transformation. So far the best pass on motor only has been a 9.417 @ 142.96 mph. If interested, you can see details of the build and all of the parts I used either at www.psfracer.com or you can go here:

Here are a couple videos of the car in action:
The plan was to always put nitrous on the car when I felt I was ready. The car was ready from day 1, but I as the driver definitely needed some seat time before I would be comfortable adding the bottle. Well now that I have about 30 passes under my belt with the car, and feel comfortable with the car now, I think its time to go to phase 2---adding a direct port fogger nitrous system from Nitrous Outlet. The engine itself has a nitrous cam in it and a tighter converter, but it also has 16:1 compression, making the tuning for nitrous very important, and the reason why I can not consider a plate system for the engine. The system must be a fogger for each cylinder to make sure each cylinder is getting the same amount of nitrous/fuel.
The plan will be to start off with a 100 shot and go up from there, to "sneak up" on the right tune, vs going for broke and torching pistons. Once the combo is figured out I plan on spraying a 150 shot - 200 shot in competition.
Here are some components that I am looking at currently:
Direct port system with the rail---I think it looks pretty clean. A dual 10lb billet bottle bracket to be placed where the passenger seat used to be. I like this bracket as the bottle heaters are incorporated with it. I will also need a progressive controller, and I am looking at a stand alone fuel system for the nitrous system, which Nitrous Outlet makes a kit that installs where the factory battery used to reside.
Anyway a lot of research to do and this thread will detail what parts I go with, its installation, and most importantly, wheels up videos as the car 60's hard, as I plan to squeeze right out of the hole. Haha.
