Default nitrouson stock motor/trans

so, would a 75 shot or even a 100 shot be okay to run through the stock motor/trans. 59,000 miles btw.


I was thinkin of puttin a single wet nozzle in the intake elbow. what should I do about pulling timing out? I am pretty sure I will need to pul a few degrees of timing out.

ive sprayed a 175 on a stock motor and trans. Pulled a few degrees of timing. and used cold plugs. That got my basically stock LT1 into the 11's.

Rule of thumb on nitrous timing. 100 shot and below, stock timing is ok. Every 25hp over 100 pull 2* of timing.

On stock motor and stock tune I was running 125 and 150 shots on the street. Haven't ran it on the track yet. I've now got a tune with 3º timing pulled back to safely spray a 150 shot, but I cant test it yet as I'm still waiting for my 500 mile clutch breakin to pass.

Not to start an ARUGMENT.... but..... if you wanna run NITROUS on a bone stock LT1 or LS1 75 100 150 ect wet or dry the main question you should be asking yourself is

How often do you plan to use it and how long before you engine takes a fat ****

It's pretty much the best power adder there is, if done correctly. For $600 you can add 150 hp quite safely to a stock lt1. You CANNOT do that with any other power adder.

so which is it? or am i the only one confused??

and at the same time i'd say stock for stock nitrous is alot better for your motor then boost. most people put a little boost then start getting crazy and turning it up, well the second they do that their motor starts to go down hill, and i guess at the same time people could just keep upping the shot with the N20 too but i'd say the N20 is a little easier to resist upping the shot, as you don't get as used to the power level of the nitrous because its not every day when you drive, its only when you go race.
