Red face I have a mystery jet... lol...

What I thought was a NX 52 jet, is not... I don't know what it is... Whatever it is, it's a .052 jet?! Does anyone know what that is?

TTT



I'm still trying to figure this out, because for about a day (and prolly 6-8 sprays) I had that in for the 52 nitrous for the 100 shot, then was checking something and realized that it was .052 and not 52... It doesn't say NX on it, I think it is a N.O.S. pill?

A .052 jet is around 125hp.

AFAIK, NX's ratings are just dropping the zero off the thousands of an inch measurement.

So a 52 jet would be 0.052". I'm pretty sure that's how they do it. You probably just have another brand that lists the full size instead of dropping the leading zero.

If so, then your jet is the standard size for a 100hp-shot according to NX. A 57 would be 125hp.

I actually appreciate the NOS jets having the .0 in front of the number, because their stampings suck so bad. I have a 38 jet and it is hard to tell if it is 33 or 38 or 83, but with that .0 in front you can tell what it is...

I think I'm gonna start ordering Edelbrock Stainless Steel jets.
