My version of a quick mount Nitrous Bottle

Hard to tell in the picture, but just imagine how hard it is to get those bracket bolts in and out quickly, Plus no matter what I do one side ends up in the rib and one on top.


Since I will only have the Bottle and Bracket in when Juicing it, I needed a way to have it strong, but easy to get in and out,

I came up with this, What do you think ???

I ditched those style of clamps on mine, there where junk in my opinion. I ended up getting the NOS brackets which are much better in my opinon. I like the setup rob.

i was starting to convince myself of nitrous last night rob...

my logic went along the lines of:

i dont wanna blow it up but i can always just go with a small shot...then when it's time to get built i can up it...

Thanks Everyone

Your right Killa, the bottle holder is a piece of junk. You can bend it with your hand. I looked at buying some polished Billet ones last week in a Speed Shop, but they were close to $200.00,
I SAID NO THANKS. I Hope things are going well with your L, Have you found the problem ?

Gator (YOUR RIGHT) it's 5/8 Strut, galvanized to be exact.
I'll paint them Black when the time comes, unless I find something better in the mean time.

BTW, IMO
GO FOR IT Cyntaxx

J/K Pal, you need to truly think it out and decide.
We'll see soon enough, if juice makes big enough a difference to out weight the risks. I sure hope it does, I think I'm on track to have a nice big smile next trip to the track
