Hey guys so I finally collected all the little parts and stopped being too lazy to put it all together. I got far enough into it that I figure I can start a thread and post some pics with the results not being too far away. So here's what I got so far. I had to make my own bracket for one of the solenoids but got them both mounted up. Got the nut to put the shark nozzle in the intake tube today so got that installed and ran some of the lines. Also started on the pluming for the fuel, all I am waiting on is a 1/8" - 1/16" adapter to tap into the fuel rail.

I got pretty lucky went to a Skycraft today which is a hardware store that has a bunch of random do-dads you wont find anywhere else. And I found a bin with a bunch of AN fittings in it and they were all .75 cents each so I took all the ones I could get. Found a few tee's and adapters but more importantly found the -4an to 1/8" adapter I needed for the fuel line. They also had an adjustable pressure cut off switch for 10 bucks, picked that up as well.



Homemade bracket



Painted and welded


Right after removing headers to remove spark plugs










Kind of looks like a mess right now


More updates coming soon now that I have plenty of time off of school.

Things left are mounting the bottle, running the feed line, and wiring.

Weren't you the guy running lean and posted pics of your plugs? Are you adding bigger injectors before letting this Nitrous system rip?

Looks good. Also, Skycraft is a magical place.

Thanks guys, I have a window switch already, and I am looking into getting bigger injectors, I plan on doing it just need the extra funds, I am in no hurry to hit the spray.

Good for you, learn from our mistakes. I bolted on a Vortech S-Trim with 10psi pulley but didn't take it for a dyno tune. A few days later the boost spiked while I was romping on it (dumb on my part) and blew both heads off the block. Had to tear the entire motor down to the block for head gaskets 3 days after installing the blower. Lots of wasted work.

Usually the jets that come with those kits are way rich, you will be fine.

Got the last fitting I needed today, do you guys recommend using teflon tape on the threads on all the fittings? I am not sure what I should put teflon on, fuel fittings? Nitrous fittings? Both?
