I would not spray out of the whole with a 5.7. The rods on those motors are like toothpicks. And if you are going to anyway I sure would'nt spray above about 1100 psi. Nice run!!

Nice 60ft time. Like Moose said, be careful. I never ran my nitrous below 3000 rpm. OK, I lied, I ran it at 2700 rpm but it's still not a good idea on such a heavy car without gears.

Great quote... rods like toothpicks!

Unfortunately, Myself and many engine builder types would say the exact same thing about powdered metal rods as found in an SRT8. While it has been proven to work by many, it's still a bit of a risk.

And isn't it funny that those little ol' 5.7 halfshafts don't break very easily? Looking at them side by side I can't believe it.
