thanks stew, taking this weekend off, got some things i wanna do, color matching is one of them, then prepping for paint, but after the cage goes in next week..

if i send you a length would you check and see if you got one? mines just the oppisite, longer fuel line then nitrous line ..

flipping those two lines around may fix your problem depending on how much longer one line is than the other. you want a longer nitrous line than your fuel line. in a perfect world both the fuel and nitrous will hit the plate/nozzle at the same instant. the problem is fuel is at 58psi and nitrous at 1,000. a longer nitrous line from the nitrous noid gives the fuel a head start and helps it hit closer to the time the nitrous gets there. that could explain why the motor might hesitate on the line.

then again, some motors like equal length lines and hit perfect that way...it's just another one of those things that you log and make a decision based on the results. im sure a longer nitrous line than fuel line isnt the best bet though.
