  • Best place to drill and tap 3.4L TB?

    This isn't exactly a nitrous question but this is the place I thought I could find the most experience. I've done several searches but I can't find what appears to be a suitable answer.

    I have one of these. NOS Fan Spray Nozzle

    I need to know where I can drill and tap my throttle body to place it out conflict with the throttle plate and where it won't conflict with anything else important.

    I'm not spraying nitrous but obviously I am spraying something. Its just a little experiment that I've cobbled together using spare parts I've scavenged from various places. I don't wanna give any more info until I determine if this idea actually works.

    Any help is appreciated as always.

      Are you tapping the TB before or after the MAF sensor?

        3.4L = no MAF

          Give us a picture of the 3.4 engine bay and I'll tell ya

          Hopefully it is not just O2 sprayed straight in there

            No, no, no! I'm studying aerospace engineering and in my book pure 02 is an oxidizer for rockets and rockets only. It is an oxidizer I'm spraying but not nearly that strong of an oxidizer.

            I'll try to get a picture of the TB I have and post it.

                Yeah, the US Gov't tried that back in the early 1940s as a way to boost aircraft engine power at high altitudes. After they destroyed 50 Allison and Pratt&Whitney engines with zero successful runs they decided it wasn't safe.

                At that point they transitioned to research involving N20 which was eventually used on some combat aircraft. :D

                  Yeah, I've seen pics of old jet fighters with nitrous bottles on them :D

                          I just need a good clear picture of the throttle body so the nitrous gurus can give me some advice on where to drill and tap it.

                            OK, well using a single nozzle might make me feel a bit nervous because of the way it splits into two so I would honestly run a duel nozzle set up similar to mine in my sig.
                            The tnt kit, not nos kit pics.
                            Wet drilled into either side of the upper intake manifold is what I would do.

                              Ok, I'll have to look into that. Thanks for the help.
