May 2006: Eleanor ready
to rock!
Technical specs.
Custom built 351 Cleveland (5,8 liter
V8) 4V Quench head

From left to right: Fuelpressure
gauge, Tachometer, Air/Fuel gauge (installed lambdasonde
in the exhaust to measure the air/fuel proportion). |
|
| View on the extra
lines for the NOS and the fuel and the fuelpressure-regulator. |
|

The red device in the upper right
corner of this picture keeps a limit on the fuelpressure on
the gauge in the car, for safety reasons.

As you can see, it's all well
within hand-reach to open the NOS bottle, activate the
system and push the go-baby-go button. |
|
| All the way at the
top center of this picture you see the red box
which is the MSD ignition retard control. It will
retard the ignition a couple of degrees when the
engine is at high-revs. (when using the NOS for
instance) |
|
| 
The NOS bottle is installed
in the center of the car. The clamps are home-made to
fit exactly in the existing holes. (Don't want to put
some extra holes in Eleanor)
|
|
| Fresh blue paint
on the block and some fresh Taylor SPIRO PRO 8
mm ignition wires. |

Installed an even heavier fuel system
(fuelpump and all the lines) and NOS.
The
NOS® CheaterTM system is designed for use on 350 CID or
larger, carbureted engines. It uses large nitrous and fuel
solenoids and can be adjusted to any desired power level from
150 to 250 horsepower, in a matter of seconds. CheaterTM systems
are easy to install and utilize a 1/2" thick injector
plate which fits between the carburetor and intake manifold
to provide ample hood clearance.
CheaterTM systems include a 10 lb. nitrous bottle, four (4)
stages of jets, aircraft-quality steel braided lines and all
other necessary electrical and mounting hardware for a complete
installation. Each single carburetor CheaterTM system includes
Jet Pack #13725 that allows jetting to four (4) different
horsepower levels: 150, 180, 210 and 250. |
