  1. I have some experience w/nitrous and drag racing. I have personally never saw a dry kit not run lean. A wet kit is definately the way to go. It seems that FI motors respond better that carb motors (my personal experience). IIRC, NOS and Nitrous Express HP numbers are based on a 350ci engine. A cheap way to to determine air/fuel mixture is to read directly off of an O2 sensor with a voltmeter. If you are serious about running nitrous I would recommend reading a book or two on the subject (very good stuff!), Summit Racing has several. NO2 is very fun, but be considerate of you pistons (particularly if they are hypereutetic). A friend of mine and I ended up rebuilding his LT1 after breaking a ring land. After that, we tried to educate ourselves. The car turned out better in the end (350HP, 400ft-lbs w/o; 460HP, 585ft-lbs with), after we knew more.

  2. The harness adapter I received with my CD player from Crutchfied had a set of connectors and wires to isolate the speaker -. There is (on 85 and 92, anyhoo) a connector in the kick panel for each speaker. You just unplug the old (factory) connector and plug the new ones in, then snake them under the dash back to the receiver. No cutting and splicing.

    BTW if you order a cd player from Crutchfield , it comes with harness adapter, install plates, and detailed instructions.

  3. You can get white junk under the cap if you run short trips all of the time. I get this on my Loyale, 4 mins. to work and 4 mins. back. A good indicator is the actual condition of the oil. The oil in the Loyale looks normal, even with the white stuff. If your oil looks "like a milkshake", you are having a problem. You also indicated that you are loosing coolant. Where is it going, on the ground, or into the engine somewhere?
