The company NOS bought a grand national in 87 to do tests with nitrous on it, it was in a magazine telling the times and everything. If I find it i'll show you, it's very interesting to see things they did to GNs back when they were "new"

The spray can and work well. A local street racer used to run low low 7's in 1/8 with 125 shot. W/150 it would go 6.90's. He finally got tired of trailered big block cars coming to street race him for $'s and sold it. Bought it back with blown engine(not due to nos,87 oct and 22psi)and built it w/ported heads,big turbo.liquid ic and it went 7.1's best,go figure!

Wow sounds exactly like a guy I know down here in Colorado. He has an eagle talon which ran like a 12.2 with about $10k of work, and he just put $10k more into it and last week I saw him run a 12.15.

Just think, at that rate of performance increase per dollar, another $30,000 or so and he's in the 11's.
