A heads/cam car is hard enough on the bottom end. I wouldn't spray ANY more than 100 shot on a heads/cam car. Sure others have done it ... but if you want it to last ... shoot a baby shot at the motor, and be sure you pull timing.

And youd be wise to run all the safety equipment - WOT switch, fuel pressure safety switch, timing retard, etc.

The LS1 seems to be able to handle a decent shot. Buddy of mine sprayed 125-150 on a heads/cam 99 SS, stock bottom end. Ran 10's. He did have an upgraded fuel system. Trans and rear end gave out, but not the engine. 5K clutch dumps will do that.
