if it blew at 3000 rpm, when did you hit it?
if you need used stock parts, let me know. i have rods and a crank i will get rid of them real cheep if it will help you out.
good luck.
ps, a good set of pistons, a fuel pump, and a good tune, 100-150 shot will be easy!

Sorry to hear that,
I was lucky enough to escape with no damage after I had a wet kit on my car [75shot] for about a year.
Just another reason why, even though Nitrous is so tempting because it is the cheapest way to go fast, it will never again touch my car.
Good Luck!

Nitrous can be very safe if you have enough fuel, good tune and the right safety's. I ran a TNT wet shot on my Hawk when it had 800 miles on the car.Went through 15 bottles in 2 months.Car made 460hp 560tq.
Kind of funny though.Back then I ran Nitrous and Noyzee was going Turbo

That sux man.
I would think a good running fuel system could support a 100 shot w/ bolt ons. Something must of been wrong. I'm sure one day I'll spray her (wet), you better beleive I'll have Don keeping tabs on her on those 1st few pulls
I guess now it's time for you to think BIG.
