RIGHT! There are pros and cons ..... are your injectors up to the match? If
so, dry is the way to go , but for running high HP apps on cast pistons, I'd
rather do it the old fashion way.

Right, these manifolds are designed for flowing air , the gas gets shot right
at the valve or, atleast that's the theory. (just like on a dry kit!)

Exactly. Wet kits are still the way to go balls to the wall IMO, but puddling
can be a concern, depends on the app........ camaros, mustangs, dodges, etc
.......
for a small, reliable shot where the injectors wont lock, the dry kits work
absolutely great, as long as the injector can handle the extra load. no
locking at high psi.
<< These motor's are
very resilient and you can make a very nice wet kit for them and safely run
a 150 shot with a few safety issues (colder plugs,.....etc.), however I
believe a 200 is pushing it but definately possible. I have video and slip's
of several trucks with these wet kit's on them running without incident, 96
dak 318 at 11.80's, 99 r/t in the mid 12's, a 97 v6 running 13.80's.....,
and I've personally seen at least a bottle a week shoved down the throat of
that 96 dak for a year and a half straight and still chugging. >
hehe.... my first exp. with a spray bar wet kit on a formula , went through
39 of the BIG 50lb bottles (me being who I am I can get Nytrous Plus (NOS +
Sulfer) cheap ..... took the 15.5 @ 88 mph to 12.50s @ 108 mph ..... no
change, just the bottle ......
waaaa.... :) I've been on both sides of the camps ! dry vs wet (nitrous) vs a
supercharger... i'll be here for hours writing that up :/
