It's a used system as you can tell, my dad suprised me with it yesterday. I thought he just got a nitrous bottle for his Nova. He got 3 bottles, the 2 blue NOS ones are his, the silver Compucar bottle is for mine, all are 10lb bottles.

The plate system is NOS, we're going to test all the solenoids and such, make sure it's ok, then hopefully once I get my daily driver in a month or two, it should be fun times.

Putting the car on the laughing gas... should be some good times. Let us know how it goes... I'm assuming very fast ;-)

A small-block 393 with nitrous?

Two words: GET VIDEO.

And I agree with IbadII; you might want to beat the rush and get a rebuild kit for your T5 right now.

A G-Force. Here's a vid of a guy running a G-Force T5.

Yeah I know, my T5 has suffered, but has fought bravely! It's withstood many a 4000rpm launch on 10lb slicks. It still feels like it's running strong.

I won't be launching off the spray, I'll be using it from 2nd on I think. There will be video of course.. though I don't expect to make a run with the nitrous for a few months, I need a daily driver in case something goes boom.

The G-Force is still pricey imo, but it's ideal for our cars.. though I'm gonna need to look into the roll bar and bellhousing and stuff now.

I would definately ensure the solenoids are working properly before you install. I would dissamble, clean up/ reassemble first. They has a tendency to stick after sitting around. I throttle switch would do you well.

Yeah, the solenoids are gonna be the first thing I play with on it before it gets used. They definately look a little beat up.
