Talking How much to spray!

Ok guys need a little technical advice. I was using a 150 dry system on bone stock LT1. Now I have heads/cam LTheaders but still stock rotating assembly. I estimate on motor it is around 415 horse. How much spray can I get away with on stock pistons. I am hoping to still spray at least 100shot. Anybody getting away with this on a similiar setup?

I hope you have a larger fuel pump, injectors, and the right spark plugs or your going to be in for a big surprise.

Ok I am not new to nitrous but I do not know the safe limit for the stock bottom end of an LT1. I do have the proper fuel system/injectors/plugs/and ignition that should accomodate the engine, nitrous combination. Also I am in the process of converting to a wet system (TNT) I think they are a little safer with the mods I have. So that being said anyone else with a similiar setup using a 100 shot successfully.

I've used up to a 175 shot without any problems on my stock bottom-end motor. So a 100 shot should be fine.

With the proper fuel setup you will have no problem spraying up to a 150 shot wet. There are some on the board spraying up to a 200 shot on stock bottoms.

Thanks for the Info guys sounds like I should be OK with 100 shot. I am sure I will get greedy and eventually find the limit ayway.

joeSS97 Well I just recently got the car back together. I honestly have not had a chance to drive the car much. I did the heads the cam and the headers all at once because I broke a piston in the engine so I had it apart and took an opportunity to do all the above mentioned work. I hope to get it to the dyno within the next month and also will have been able to drive it a bit. I can tell you that the car sounds awesome not too choppy of an idle but just enough so you know there is a cam in it. Throttle is super responsive now. Man I am getting excited just talking about it. I will update my signature though when I get it dyno'd. I am hoping for 350-375 rwhp and I really want to bump that 400rwtq number without the juice.
