Dad and I bought a Cutlass for dirt cheap and decided to try some nitrous out. It's not a looker, but it's either gonna get down the track or blow up trying! Car was suppose to have gone 12.4's on motor before, so I'm going to try and squeeze some high 11's before spray.
what piston's are in it ? and how much spray are you going to give it ?

Let's just say we were looking for a cheap rolling chassis to put the spare motor we have for our Jeeps in, and this was cheaper than any roller we found.
It needs doors, and the trunk needs a partial replacement (looks like water leaked in at one time). Floor boards are decent, and the rest of the car isn't bad. Surprisingly, the trunk lid is rock solid.
It's a 406 with Sportsman II's. I'd like to eventually work up to a 150 shot with this motor if all goes well, then maybe change to the forged 406 shortblock that's also laying around.
It came as a 406/th350/12 bolt combo. The only thing I don't like is the 4:10 gear! But hey, it has the plush/pillowy front bench seat, so it's a cruiser.

depending on your cam the car should run mid,low 11's on motor,and im shure the hose will push you in the 10's regardless. srp says thier 12:1 forged pistons are good for a 200 shot,and im sure they would give a mello tune for what they are really capable of.
