Default Stock bottom end tollerance on h/c/i + 75 shot?

I've been kicking around the idea of a small shot on my h/c setup for a while. Don't think I'll be able to find a 102mm plate setup yet, but I'm not in a hurry yet to do spray.

Just wondering how much the bottom end can handle on a higher DCR of this cam.

75 shouldn't be a problem as long as the timing and air/fuel are correct. Typically 150 shot is all the factory pistons will take on a somewhat regular basis. I have seen guys push them past that. haha... my personal car made it 3 passes on a 200 before it killed a piston on what I thought was a safe tuneup!

There's no guarantees but I wouldn't think there would be a on of risk if all you are wanting to do is a 75 shot.

Hmmm.. interesting. I've been through nitrous theory every way you can slice it and I still get that voice every once in a while telling me "Spray it........ SPRAY IT!" Just wondering too how the front two cyls will do with the new 102 intake on a NOZzle setup. FWIG, the only TRUE way to correctly meter your n/f mixture to each cyl is DPNI, but that's a big pricetag for a new guy. Unless I get it cheap enough with used parts and Nitrous Dave's noids.
