Abstract
A nitrous plate (1) includes four end-fed nitrous oxide spray conduits (2, 4, 6 & 8) positioned coplanar in the plate passage (21), supported at one end by respective walls (17, 18, 92 & 20) of the plate with closed distal conduit ends positioned near the center (22) of the plate passage. Two conduits (2, 6) are coaxially aligned with their closed ends in confronting relationship across the central axis of the plate passage. The remaining conduits (4, 8) are coaxially aligned with closed ends in confronting relationship across the central axis to the passage and are oriented perpendicular to the other conduits. Four fuel spray conduits are included in a separate plane and are organized in the foregoing way. The distal ends of the spray conduits are mechanically linked together by a junction block (10).
