A Rare Combination

This seldom-seen 406 cubic-inch small-block Ford Hemi is worth a mention. Strange’s Competition Engines made the combination possible with custom Hammerhead Hemi Heads. They filled it with goodies like Gibtec Pistons, topped it off with CFM carbs. BES Racing Engines dynoed the naturally aspirated setup at 1,110 horsepower at 9,700 rpm.

One of the many displays at the Nitrous Outlet booth was this LS engine boosted by a single VS Racing turbocharger, turbo system by Trick Turbo, then fitted with the Nitrous Outlet’s high-flowing wet direct port system. This particular unit includes one wet nozzle per cylinder that injects fuel and nitrous, so a fuel supply is needed, but unlike the dry direct port system, a fuel management system to compensate for the amount of nitrous sprayed isn’t required. Each wet nozzle is capable of flowing up to 200 additional horsepower on its own.
