Took apart the kart for painting/ Final assembly.

got tired of the black chassis so i gave it a shot of Banner Red from Krylon.

Looks great, now where is onboard video with nitrous? Great job mate!

Ive been wondering how big of a shot of nitrous can you run on a beefed up briggs 5hp.

****, this thing is a money pit.

And your tellin' me!

Ive been wondering how big of a shot of nitrous can you run on a beefed up briggs 5hp.

Some people run like a 9 hp shot.

 

[thatcobaltguy]

Is it safe?

 

[Ibnzmonkey]

Is it safe?

Nitrous is safe. My Kart is not. Definitely not at all.

 

[BradenM]

Nitrous is safe when you understand all of the working principles involved, understand that you need to spray it in with an appropriately sized jet, understand what it does and why, e.t.c.

It ISN'T safe when you just bolt it on and go, like on the fast and the furious.

There is a lot involved.

I have nitrous on my drag car. I was just wondering if it was safe on a briggs flat head with a billet 110 cam over sized valves arc rod wiseco piston. billet flywheel. billet head. and a tilly alky carb. with alot of machine work. I was told it would generate 15 hp. could I run a 5 hp shot on this.

 

[jr dragster T]

Sure you could, For that matter you could do that to a stock briggs you just have to know how to set it up properly and when to say no.
