Crackerstyle did youget the PM I sent you about the NOS pricing???? As far as your other question about chrome cylinders with NOS vs Hi-Comp pistons with NOS. I am not sure I understand the question. I prefer to have chrome bore cylinders with Hi-Compression pistons installed. Maybe you could clarify your questions. The pros and cons of Chrome cylinders are mostly pros in the fact that the barrels will not rust and become pitted from the boat sitting for lengths of time in the yard. Steel bore cylinders probably seat rings easier, but they will always become rust pitted. Chrome bore cylinders can sit forever and will never go bad.
 
I like that. I'm gonna get Gold to mount one on my mini and run dummy lines. That ought to get some chuckles. LOL ,Cajun

I see it now ,I always look for the extra lines and 2nd pump anyways ,theres a lot of people that try and hide them bottles but they only last so long :D
 
Mike, I did get your pm. Thanx
I have chrome cylinders on my boat, I hears the rings you use with chrome cylinders do not like the effects of NOS. I hear that the rings you use in a steel bore cylinder tolerate NOS better.
Also my boat has tons of compression, I hear that is not favorable with NOS, might be better to switch boat over to alchohol or inject it with alchohol.
Like I said I HEAR
BUT
I dont KNOW
Hope that clears up my ?
 
Sorry I overlooked the reply to this post Cracker. I do not believe any aircraft ring, steel or chrome would like the effects of NOS more than the other. Any info I could offer on the subject would be pure speculation. I hate to say I don't know, but neither ring was designed for a Nitrous application. But to guess I would think the Chrome ring may be harder. I have installed mild Nitrous Systems on both Chrome Bore and Steel Bore motors and not had any problems with either. I have installed a couple high Horsepower direct port fogger systems on race motors that have a nozzle in each intake pipe (200-300 hp shot). These were chrome bore (Cerminil) cylinders. They take a steel ring. On these motors I use Forged pistons with a ceramic coated piston top and moly coated skirts.
