What does it matter if I like them are not ? The guy made 917 HP with a 9-1 motor, that pretty good.
Congratulations.

917 HP is right in line with what Krull did with E heads on pump gas years ago. Made 914 hp.
Its a free country, whatever floats your boat and no Chevy in it.
I call it a win.

Not up to me to divulge that. Let's just say there's a lot more in the car than an 8.50.. that was the bump spot for that class though..

Sure, that too. However, just want to make it clear it's a chitty old CV-1 engine doing it..
You know, the one that can't make power and has valve train issues along with intake distribution issues.. yeah, the one that made the 1000 mile trip with no issues and won the class.. the CV-1 powered Pontiac Firebird if you will..
Better?

This win should be celebrated, and I am glad it is. Open the hood and what do you see? Not a SBC, or an LS engine. Great win.

Awesome accomplishment!

One thing we learned about nitrous......it does not offer unlimited power. Each head has a limit after which it doesn't matter what size the jets are or how many stages are used.
