years ago a friend of mine has a new 98 camaro Z28.. he lived at home and made $65K a year so the game plan was to spray the camaro until it died then send it to lingenfelter..
That car would not give up.. He called nirtrous express and ask for bigger jets. They said we dont make anything bigger than what you have. He was like ok ill just skip the jets.
50 some 15 bottle later the rear end exploded and they had a major crash... totaled the car.
Nitrous and clutch where his only modificaton and the car ran a 12.1-12.3 passes all the time with major traction issues.. his mph was 120 range.
Some time you just get a good one... I know of people that have sprayed once and there junk came appart..

I dropped a smog era 1975 351w 2bbl with over 160k on it in a 70 Maverick. I had a 2bbl 125 shot plate kit laying around and thought what the heck? I ran well over 50 bottles through that thing with a few oopsies up shifiting into nuetral while on the spray. motor was no worse for wear than when I started. car ran 12.80's on the puny 7-1/4 spicer rear too with 24.5" slicks. Had more fun with the car that way then when i had it in the 10's. Only mods to the smog motor was a glasspack clamped to the y pipe and a high perf fuel pump.

yes, it is still going. 32 bottles truck now has 5300+ miles on it. will it make it to 50 bottles? I think we should make vote for how many bottles before a breakdown. Does anyone know how to do that? The winner gets a piston from the motor when it goes.
