yes I plan on having a 2gall fuel cell to run the nitrous with, it will have its own pump and 110-116 octane, to be "safe". But that's for down the road.

if you're planning on running a seperate fuel system for the nitrous, then I'd go with a 300 shot

That fuel can handle it

yes and I'll bring my parts bucket when the bottom end caps decide to go on a break and just leave

the concensious with 2bolts BB is that it's more a question of RPM's rather then just power...I guess I'll find out!

if you're worried about it at all now, then why not upgrade tat before it's together? You can change the studs or even drill holes for more to hold the caps better. You can also upgrade to a better metal cap. Then you won't have to worry about it
