Default Can i bump up my shot????

I am running a NOS 5177 Dry kit with a 125 shot now. I recently installed a Racetronix fuel system and a set of Ford red top 30# injectors. Do you think i could bump up the shot to say a 150???? All other mods are listed below, tell me what you think.. Thanks,,

On a stock rotating assembly? I dont know. I'd say your pushing the limits....

Need forged rods and pistons...

As far as the rotating assembly goes, your fine, the TNT wet systems put out ALOT more than a 5177 kit, and people run them all the time, just make sure your not going lean and you'll be fine. Good luck!!!!

Go for it, I have. If you want the real jet sizes for the 150rwhp, let me know. Dual .043's as NOS specs is 150hp at crank or 127.5rwhp using 15% drivetrain loss. Remember NOS over rates for safety.

I would bet you will be lean on anything bigger than your currently running. I would switch it to a wet kit. Much safter and will hit like a ****. `
