Nitrous on a 3.4

[1DangerousV6]

its possible that because you would be running 2 power adders (the cam and the nitrous) that you would need to upgrade your fuel pump..also..if you are planning on running a dry kit..you may want to look into larger injectors since both the cam and the dry kit would be utilizing the stock injectors to supply the extra fuel required to add power..otherwise run a wet nitrous kit

Hmm, well like i said its not that big. Doesnt even lope alot. The specs I beleive are on that cardomain site from the link of my car. But thanks for the response. I might just do the pump anyways, cant hurt anything right?

1DangerousV6 , a cam is not a power adder, also without tuning the computer will not really know that there is more cam there and will not be attempting to add more fuel anyway

93camaro_zzz , that cam is actually very N2O friendly, although it is not very big, it has much more duration and lift on the exhaust which will be beneficial in the N2O world

and i agree that it wont hurt to add a high flow pump, how many miles does the car have... its probably getting near that time anyway

Your cam spec's:
12364059 Camshaft Kit
The duration at .050 lift (intake/exhaust) is 204º/216º, while the value lift is .427"/.454". Lobe centerline is 112.

Cam is not a "power adder" but it can increase power.

Adding a bigger fuel pump may be a smart thing to do... just to be safe.

well..not a "power adder"..i guess i was just getting more to the need for fuel point of view..anyways..the cam is pretty mild but i think it will work very well with juice..to me it seems to even have juice more in mind than NA with those specs but my knowledge on cams is limited..id definitely upgrade the pump if you plan on running juice with it..cant hurt..will only help..then you might just want to watch those injectors if you run a dry setup..should be nice [img]smile.gif[/img]

I ran an 85 shot on my 3.4 for about 2 years. Very sparingly and mostly at the track. All you have to do is cover all the bases, fuel pressure, plugs, FPSS, WOT switch.......whatever else, blowdown tube....... The most dangerous experience didn't happen to me, but aguy filling my bottle. He overfilled and blew the safety disk, shooting and "X" of spray from floor to ceiling and getting the himself in the glasses..... He was cursing so damn much and we were just a'laughing (once we knew he was fine).

The best I ever ran was 14.99?. I forgot the last didgit. But that was with 3.73's and too many overpriced mods. A worth-while one is the aluminum driveehsaft IMO. Also, I wasnt too worried about the engine b/c you can pick up a running 3.4 for like $500 or less.

wow..he wasnt using a psi gauge on the fill station??..i just got my aluminum driveshaft..it'll be going in next week..woohoo!

[93camaro_zzz]

Thanks guys. I think I might do that pump cause get ready for this... my pump has 140000 miles on it. [img]smile.gif[/img] yeah, so I just might get one. Thanks for the advice. keep it comin. ;)

Change the fuel filter too.
The V6-60s have cheap cast pistons and forged steel rods so go figure, hmmmm.
The biggest low $ improvement for the rotating assy is to get some stronger pistons.

[93camaro_zzz]

OK, thanks. I would like to get some pistons. I have seen those ross flat-tops on ftpp.net, and I like them alot. But well see how it goes.

Pump n filter
