What year vehicle and what model? Sometimes it helps to list those when asking for help. They aren't too tough to install if you have basic mechanical knowledge.

If you have an LS1 F-bod, then 100 shot is okay with stock injectors. A 150 shot is pushing the limits, especially if you have the year F-bod with only 26 lb. injectors.

i will hopefully be aquiring a 2000 to 2002 ls1, w/ a Power demon stage I 4l60e behind it. What do you recomend on nitrous dry or wet? the ls1 will be in a 2002 blazer i dunno if that matters.

I believe the new ls1's (2000-2002) models had the smaller 26.6 LB/hour injectors. Doesnt matter if it is going into a blazer but id suggest upgrading if your gonna spray a 150 shot. Also, its been widely debated whether to go with wet or dry nitrous. Wet will always outperform dry, but some people stand by the notion that dry is safer than wet. All in all id say go with a wet shot, and make sure it is properly tuned as both can be very safely used as long as its tuned.

99/00 had small injectors. 98/01/02 had the bigger ones. If you're buying a motor try to get an 01/02.

Go the extra couple bills and get some bigger injectors anyway. If you're spraying a dry shot you definitely don't want to tap out the injectors, which will happen somwhere between 400-440 at the tire, depending on year of stock injectors.
