gsxtcy Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 I don't know enough about the v8 used in the 400, but you really don't want to run n20 unless you have forged internals. What is the compression on the v8? What hp shot are you planning on running? Put it on the dyno and verify your a/f to be sure you aren't too lean anywhere. Remember, n20 is hard on an engine's internals and if you plan on hitting it often with a good size shot, plan on a motor rebuild. Remember too, you have a luxury sports sedan, not a sports car.
