Can't tell if serious comming at me with all this fast and the furious nonsense......and you don't want none of the stang bay boy. To answer your question though it honestly depends on the shot you want to run. Small shots 50 or below you can get away with long as your not stupid with it. Bigger shots if your already pushing over 400 then I would start looking into forged internals, at least a valvetrain and fuel system upgrade. Nothing major like a forged crank (there good up to 1000) but at the very least a fuel system upgrade. Nitrous is a balanced mix and running too little fuel and too much of the bottle will **** away your engine real fast. So again it depends on what your looking for.

Graded now as well.. So your saying 370 HP idk about that I seen people do that with just the cam.. and the ls6 flows better then the bbk? I honestly,didnt know that and the only way to see how much HP im pushing is to get.tuned my heads are off looking for someone to do a milling job with bigger valves but I think im pushing over 370 HP... But you think I could get away with a 50 or 75 shot

you have a cam only car basically, you can run a 100 shot or more as long as its set up properly and tuned well. you might want to upgrade to katech rod bolts if you plan on spraying a bunch.

hsw makes nice kits, probably what i would buy. just make sure you buy everything needed for it to be safe. too many people think nitrous is bad because them or someone they knew blew up their **** running a button on their shifter and nothing else. a wet kit from harris comes with pretty much everything you need; botttle, lines solenoids window switch, etc and you could buy a bottle heater, remote bottle opener, micro-controller and everything else you would want.
