    When designing your fuel system, plan on your pumps and lines flowing at least 0.1 gallons per hour per horsepower at rated pressure. The testing at Edelbrock was conducted with a fuel pressure of 6 to 6.5 psi. Any variation from this fuel pressure will cause your final air/fuel ratio to change. Consult our technical department for any questions on fuel pressure and its effects on final air/fuel ratios when using nitrous oxide.
