Pressure switch for nitrous bottle heater

I'm installing some new goodies on the truck for the nice fall weather at the track.Hope to see the 11.90s soon with new carb,new converter,and best of all is the nitrous bottle warmer pressure switch from a company called dyno tune, This switch is great,it keeps my bottle at 950psi .This switch is way better than any of the thermal switches I've used.http://www.dynotunenitrous.com/store...p?idproduct=43

Re: Pressure switch for nitrous bottle heater

I'm going with a 4150 hp 750 cfm mech sec holley and a JEGS Street/Strip XHD 10'' Torque Converter Stall Speed: 2900-3200 RPM. The old carb was a 700 mech sec and the converter is a 12'' 1800 stall. The changes should help my 60ft times and I will be able to launch it on the juice. Does any one know the breaking point of the stock driveshaft ?????

Re: Pressure switch for nitrous bottle heater

I have a 3/4 ton 2 piece that I rebuilt & had balanced. My truck scales out @ just under 4100lbs with me and 20gal of fuel over the rear. I launch @ 3600 on trans break. Motor makes just over 600HP So the stock ones can handle some abuse.
