I'll tell you what though, we'll find out today!!!!!!!

Ya man, dont drag me into it hehehehe
All I showed was I was a test mule for this type of Bar Spray back in the 70's.
I just haven't seen it used over the years so i assumed it never progressed to a reliable state. Maybe NX has perfected it after all these years, if they did, way to go NX
[b]NOW HOW DO I GET MY DAM ROYALITIES
Hope the results are awesome,
cant wait to hear them ....

Well the numbers are in! Just as I hoped:
533HP and 714TQ!
The 100HP shot actually made 166HP and 209TQ on a conservative tune. There was more power there on the 100HP shot, but the that would be putting the motor in the destruction zone. Not bad on a factory sb. Now it's time to make this thing hook!

Congrats if your system works, and congratulations on making 533 on the stock shortblock....bet it won't make it down the 1/4 many times.
I think Traction is the least of your problems.

Congrats flamedlightning,
Niiiiiiiiiiiiice power increase, especially the TQ.
I was running my Stock Block over 500 HP for a couple of years,
It held up til the day I rebuilt the bottom end, but man oh man was I eating it up from the inside out.
I only made one dyno pull with the stock block, 501/615 using a 75 shot, but I pumped it up 25 more n20 HP and added a ported Eaton for the last year.
It was prob @ 540/680 that way, but we never did get to dyno it again ???
(4lb lower, 2.8 upper)
CONGRATS AGAIN....
