A 347-stroker small-block Ford fitted with Speedmaster connecting rods and a Zex Perimeter Plate nitrous system picked up 171 horsepower on the dyno - demonstrating what a well-matched nitrous setup makes possible on a purpose-built engine.

Starting with a forged 5.0L short block and stock E7TE heads, this build documents the dyno gains from a complete top-end upgrade and 100-horsepower nitrous shot - taking output from 279 hp to 506 hp.
