50 shot on stock lt1?

Probably forever. I wouldn't even mess with a nitrous kit for only 50 horse IMO.

I agree. It should last practicly forever. I've done up to a 175 shot on my stock shortblock. It still runs great.

Thats how it starts. Then it'll be 150, how about 175. Think a dual stage kit is okay. Then bamm, before you know it your couple thousand in the hole, the mob is looking for ya and your girlfriend is knocked up. Seen it a thousand times. Its not worth it all.

Eh, I guess it is.

Good luck with whatever you decide.

Lol...that was pretty funny.

But i would go with a 100 shot if i were you. As long as you have the safty items you will be fine. A 50 shot just doesn't seem worth it to me.

Yo

So if you used Nitrous like once a day... with just the 50shot... nothing would go wrong? If everything is hooked up right, etc... Thats cool... L0L A little extra hp/torque never hurt no one.

How often would you shoot the 100shot?

How cool is to use the 150shot when you're racing... haha what kind of g force does that give you... L0L

If your gonna run a 100 shot you might want to look into a new fuel pump. Just to be safe.
