you are going to put NOS on, but you say NX, well what one?

a 50 shot will hardly be noticed on a LT1, people are spraying 150 with ease.


Get a wet kit, get a Digital 6 plus ignistion so you can retard the timeing, get a rpm activated switch, and a WOT switch, and the fuel pressure safety switch.


theres moer I'm missing though.

Good luck, look to spends 1000 to spray a good amount safely.

75 is safe but not really worth the trouble, one Impala guy is spraying as much as a 280 two stage shot on a stock bottom car has seen 200hp shots for literally years, 175-200hp shots are almost common over there. I know the Mallory ignition box is popular with those guys it does everything you need as far as window switches and rev limt timing retard.

I'm not sure how your engine will respond ton nos...you might want to try nitrous oxide instead.
