What is the maximum hit that the stock internals can handle (pistons, springs, etc.)?

How do you regulate or adjust/bump the pressure of the bottle?

Generally, 150hp is thought of as the max safe shot on an stock LT1 - some disagree.

A bottle heater will help control bottle pressure. You can buy a pad alone and manually active it, or buy kits with either a temperature sensor or a pressure transducer to automatically activate the heaters.
