your pummp isnt keeping up...they are set at 35 when you get them...ls1 run at 57...try a walbro intake pump and new filter...

if you wnt first hook up a guage to it and go do a WOT run and see what it does...come back and tell us

As stated above, connect a fuel pressure gauge to your Schrader valve and then temporarily tape it to the windshield so you can monitor your fuel pressure when you hit the nitrous. If the fuel pressure is dropping, your fuel pump isn't keeping up with the demand and you FPSS is saving your engine

Hate to steal thread, but what PSI should I look for as a WOT N20 run on a LT1 ? Say spraying a 100 shot? I will be putting a Walbro in before I spray on it, but id like to have a ball park idea.

And my FPSS is adjustable. I have a FP gauge, so what would you guys set it at? 3-4PSI lower than what a normal run on a 100 shot gets me?

Check the fuel pressure safety switch setting. Never assume they are "preset". Then check the fuel system pressure.
