    Anyone try a 25 shot or so of nitrous on a stock flathead?

    grandpa used to say, "he had a $100 saddle on a $25 horse!"

  4. I ran a "sneaky pete" nitrous kit on a 61 Rambler American flathead 6. I installed it on a 72 degree day and took it for a test drive...hit the button and it certainly improved!
    Took it down to the HAMB drags ['03] and it was 105 degrees. Had a grudge race against Hollywood Tuck's 65 rambler and when I hit the button if coughed all over itself...ran terrible!

    Not good, I hope that you didn't hurt it.
