nitrous oxide from factory ?

[Bb70charger500]

The focus came from the factory with the zex kit the name was just a badge! I worked at ford when they came out ! They didn't last long I had one come back for a motor within 3 months ! As stated once it was used warranty was gone! Car didn't have even 1000 miles on it!

the first thing I thought of was the inflater bottle in the trunk , but I didn't know it was filled with NOS

Not all were. Ford 1970 bottles stated that they contained Fluoro-Carbons. 1967 Camaro bottle said CO2. 1970 AMC Javelin was NOS, so was 1970 Pontiac.

A great way to hide Nitrous in a FAST car! I'm surprised no one else thought of it yet!

I’ve heard tell of finding beer bottles inside the door, does that count?

GM-1 (Göring Mischung 1) was a system for injecting nitrous oxide (laughing gas) into aircraft engines that was used by the Luftwaffe in World War II. This increased the amount of oxygen in the fuel mixture, and thereby improved high-altitude performance. GM-1 was used on a number of modifications of existing fighter designs in order to counter the increasing performance of Allied fighters at higher altitudes.

GM-1 was developed in 1940 by Otto Lutz to improve high-altitude performance. It could be used by fighters, destroyers, bombers and reconnaissance aircraft, though its first use was in the Bf 109E/Z fighter.

For 100 bonus points what was the allied counter and the first aircraft to use it?

no . but i have worked with a body guy once he cut a quater off a ford and 3 beer cans were taped to it

I thought it was the supercharged P-51 for decades but just learned the F-4 Wildcat was the first to be supercharged.

Supercharging and nitrous aren't the same.
No US planes used nitrous in WWII. They used methanol-water injection along with turbo/Supercharging.

 

[YY1]

I never said they were.

I said the US countered the nitrous with supercharging.

Here is your post.
You commented on the first to be supercharged, not the first to use nos.
The question is which was the first to use nos.

you must have missed my first post in the thread

Wow I got it right on the bottle for the space saver spare, for years I always thought the bottle had co2 in it instead of NOS.
