How much could a relatively stock internally rebuild 3.4L handle, will have ported heads, upper and lower intake and ported tb, headers and a couple of other bolt ons. It might also have a cam..I just want an idea of what i should be able to achieve.Thanks

Re: How much Nitrous..

I don't know, those seem like awfully small numbers... I know guys that are throwing 100shots on their 2.2L Eco with no internal mod's. Even my Cav can handle a consistent 75 shot.

Re: How much Nitrous..

I think the 20 per cylinder was from ZEX.
Not a hole lot if you look at a sparying 4 cyl, or a LT1.
NOS claimed not to add more than 50% hp with nitrous.
These are old numbers I don't know if they still use them.

yes they are small #'s . but there were a few people on here a few years ago that all lost a piston or 2 (generally # 5 or 6) when spraying over a 50 shot

i wonder how much you could throw at the motor if you were using a direct port kit..... hummmm..... i might end up doing that before i put my new motor in in around a year (hopefully)

Re: How much Nitrous..

Our plenums were never ment to have fuel sparyed in them.
It could puddle.
With direct port you can go way higher.
