If your goal is to create a car with a huge load of power, maybe the fastest ways to quench your power thirst is to add a big shot of nitrous to your setup. Even though nitrous has been proven to be a stable power boost for many gearheads, there are still sceptics out there that believe it`s too perilous to run. In this one, we get to dive deeper into that hypothesis. The engine that is put to the test is a completely stock 305CI Chevy Small Block. Engine Masters from Motor Trend decided to see how much nitrous it can take before something bad happens.
However, when it comes to an experiment like this, you can`t really determine the longevity of the engine.
Nevertheless, you can see exactly where the breaking point is when it comes to increasing nitrous to a stock engine. The engine lasted significantly longer than what was previously anticipated by the Engine Masters. They are adding nitrous to the stock 305CI Chevy Small Block till it finally gives under pressure. You can learn a lot about nitrous in this video. Engine Masters also gives a valuable lesson on how to safely implement nitrous on any engine. Watch the video below and tell us if this experiment changed your views on nitrous.
