LOL. I was looking to do the same with a couple of sneaky bottles in my '89. I'm going to stay up with this post so I can figure out what I'll do to mine for more power. I already have exhaust, an air cleaner, drop and rims, and I just got the truck so I have some more to do.

haha yea, so far from what all ive seen i think it will be pretty easy. i also have exhaust, air cleaner, drop and rims. i also have some mild custom body mods, CAI, chip, and a pretty built 700r4. if you have any messengers or shoot me a pm i can tell you a lot of lil tricks ive figured/found out for these trucks that are on the cheap side.

you cant rig that spacer to work because it wont atomize the fuel and nitrous right. save some money and buy a plate and do it right. if you dont then youll have all kinds of problems.

50 bucks is quite a bit if your in high school, not being able to work many hours, paying for insurance, paying for GAS, trying to build another motor, and have a g/f, i think if i drop the g/f i could make some serious horsepower and it would be cheaper!
but the guy at UMR (engineering skool) has access to CNC and CAD so he can whip me one up to excact specs for only the price of hte stock.

ezactly, after i save money on the plate ill have a whole fill and almost another half! haha, my point was just that if you can come up with something cheaper or free, and your on a budget, why pay more?
