To flow test remove plate,,put plate in bucket..to set pressure..I run 6 to 7 psi....let fuel flow thru the plate to get reading...don't just hook up and dead head it..it must flow thru the plate....like it's working on the car.. I use dead head pump set up .first kit on car fuel pump second kit is on stand alone fuel supply....I always bleed my fuel lines before I use the nitrous as well.this would eliminate that ,but add another fuel line......

That return style regulator makes sense about bleeding air.

Small block ford's need more fuel on all the corner cylinders, #1, #4, #5, #8. Especially when you start spraying alot. I ran into this same issue years ago running a dart block 302 based motor. I know there's alot of variables as well depending on the type of kit your using. I was running a 40 jet on the nitrous side using a direct port fogger system. The way I remedied the issue was on all the corner cylinders #'s 1, 4, 5, 8, I ran a 40 n2o jet and a 38 fuel jet. And on the rest of the cylinders #'s 2, 3, 6, 7 I ran 40 n2o jet and a 34 fuel jet. I had to richen up the corners to keep it happy. Make sure you have a good stable reading on your timing as well and that you are pulling enough timing out when the kit is activated.

Just a quick tip: You now have multiple bypasses in that fuel system because your pump (if it's like the old Holley Blue, Black, Red, etc.) has it's own internal bypass that's (supposed to be) set at 15 PSI. I've had several instances where the internal screen and plunger would get crap in them and hang up that internal bypass. That can wreak havoc on your fuel pressure!! If that filter had crap in it, I'd pull the bottom plate on that pump and clean out it's internal screen as well. Also, I would suggest checking your flowing system with the engine running. The higher voltage on the pump will also effect your pressure!! Great Vids!! Keep 'em coming!!! PS: I HATE pulsing nitrous solenoids!! It works but the solenoids don't seem to live near as long. The best luck I've had requires a bit more plumbing and wiring but multiple kits on simple timers are sooooo much easier. No worries about slew-rates, timing slopes matching/syncing with the ramp rates. Just a simple multi-step retard and any powerful enough ignition box to get the job done but not burn up coils...lol

Good info. From one old man (a LOT older) to another, this is great information, but the watchers have to understand that you have to have two fuel pumps, one for the engine, and one for the nitrous system. If you have one pump, your pressure settings may mean nothing unless that pump has the volume to maintain the pressures in both systems at full flow. Seen engines burned down by pumps that don't flow enough.

I agree, return style fuel systems avoid so many problems right off the bat. Plus your fuel stays cooler because the pump isn’t constantly working it. It’s amazing how many people don’t understand the cooling effect a carb has on iat’s and how keeping your fuel flowing and cool just improves that process.

I need to do what you have done here. As it is now it is a 1 gallon fuel cell, electric fuel pump. The fuel goes from the tank to the pump then into the fuel side on the NX solenoid, no regulator, oopsie. So far it has been working okay. However, you nailed it in this video.
