? N2O & Radix
#1
I think my roommate has seen the light and is going to get rid of his 2000 SS Camaro and get a truck. We went and test drove a Joe Gibbs truck the sales man thought it was super fast it got so annoying that I finally told him that it ran alright and I had a HD that make it look stupid but they want way too much. I think they thought the blower was gold plated. The plan is for a Chapman super truck. Ok now for my ? how big of a shot nitrous can I run with a Radix and still rely on the stock fuel system or should we set up a seconder fuel system and run 118oct in it. I would like at lest to run 100HP but prefer 150HP of go gas instead and we have a power adder cam setting hear to. Its somewhere around .576L 234@.050.
Thank for any help

I have seen larger shots with other types, but the most I have seen with a Radix is a 50-shot. N2O will have a huge effect on a blown motor vs a NA motor due to the cooling effect. I have heard of a 35-shot being about a 75rwhp gain on a dyno due to this effect.
I would be more concerned about whether or not the lower end could handle it over whether or not the fuel system could. I would run a separate fuel cell with it's own pump, if it were me.
I have seen a similar system posted for sell recently.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head. I dont think a stock block will handle a blower and too much n20 for long. Even Parish is using ARP hardware and no more than a 75 shot.I would definately go with a setup like 02 Denali had for sale.

Parish was running 13psi and I know for sure a 100hp when he was hear in KC all I,m talking about is 7psi & 150hp. As far as rod bolts is for 6800rpm he was turning. The max this one will be 6000rpm. Head bolts will be a different story.
