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.

how would a 74 shot be on my 4.11s/ how is the shifting like.....i plan only to spray 3rd and after, i figured 1st and 2nd is fast enough with those gears

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