Nitrous for Joyner, who's done it?

Ok, so it seems to me that if I'm going to have to rebuild the motor anyway, a little Sneaky Pete setup on the 650 might be fun. I'm thinking something to top the dune at Comp Hill, that kind of thing.

Has anyone built a N2O system for a Joyner? I figured I'd drill and tap the bottom of the intake with Fogger nozzles, put the smallest jets available in and hit it halfway up.

Anyone done this?

You're crazy. But a good kind of crazy.

I was actually thinking, as I noodled it a bit, of two Fogger nozzles, one in each manifold runner, which would provide both the fuel and the N2O. The issue I can see is the size nozzle required may be much smaller than normally used.

Here's the math: 650 cc in two cylinders is roughly equal to 1300 cc in four cylinders, or 2600 cc in a V8. That's a very small displacement, and many nozzle setups are for 5700 cc or larger V8 models.

The EFi kit, I don't think would work, because the car is a carb setup. Maybe some Joyners are EFI, it would work on that, where you just add the N2O in a nozzle, and have the computer add extra fuel when the N2O is activated.

I really don't need the extra power all the time, just at the tops of dunes, so this could be the hot setup until the motor goes completely and I get the Silver Bullet kit.

Hmmm....

A little research showed that the N2O kits with a pair of fogger nozzles and all the parts are more expensive than the Silver Bullet engine kit. And, I'd be adding N2O to an engine with cast pistons.... Maybe Silver Bullet first, then N2O..... In the meantime, I put the evac system partially in place. If I didn't want everything nicely painted, it would probably be easier <_<

      Question, Does anyone know if a 700-cylinder, piston, and head fit on top of a 500-bottom end, Although I have a 500 and have rebuilt the 500 once, I'm thinking the lower end may be the same for both the 500 and the 700. Does anyone have information on that?

      The conversion took about 350lbs. off the vehicle.  It never rode great, but now I feel every  crack in the road.  I have backed off spring compression nut to the point just under where they would move around if suspension was at full extension, but it is still very stiff.  I would like to put some softer coilover springs on it, but I have no idea what the spring rate is with the original springs so I would just be guessing on what to order.  Does anyone have the data for the original spring compression rate?  I am willing to give up a little ground clearance for a softer ride. Right now when sitting still the rear suspension is at or near full extension and the rear tires have several degrees of camber which will cause uneven wear if allowed to continue in this state.

      Top speed is 30mph on flat grass ground.  but it will not go up minor hills forward or reverse without a runing start.  If you start at the bottom of the hill machine will stop about 1/2 way up.  I have the engine cover off and you can see the outside of the drive clutch will stop spining., and the engine does bogg down some.  Dosent matter if engine is cold or warmed up.  Seat belts are connected.  Fuel is clean
      I am the 5th shop to look at it and different shops have replaced the fuel pump, injector, ign coil, wet clutch, 
      I am not sure how to check for codes with this machine,  can anyone teall me how to do it?
       
      Compression with hot eng is 145,  valves adjusted to .005 with a cold engine.  Dash shows 426 hours
      I am not convinced it's an engine problem

      Apparently, these are Hisun or at least they use Hisun engines. I can't find much info on them online yet.  Ran across a used one with just 100 miles on it as a very reasonable price.  Just curious.
      Okay, more info...they are owned by Textron Corp who also owns Bell Helicopter, Cessna & Beechcraft aircraft, Ez-Go & Cushman and Arctic Cat and a bunch of other companies.
      So are thy cheap Chinese crap machines or are they good to go?
