Default Bore or Stroked which works better with nitrous?

Was planning on going Bore but I still want to spray. Is one of the two better for nitrous?

I think the cam has a lot to do with it!

I have a 382 stroker.

N/A dyno 450 rwhp / 447 rwtq
100 Wet shot dyno 571 rwhp / 747 rwtq.

I'd stroke it. You'd have a fully forged bottom end, no worry about sleeves, and a put a 300 shot direct port on. <img border="0" alt="[worship]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

I dont know, I say its all personal preference. Look at it this way. With the stroker your already gona be makin pretty good tq numbers. Then look at N20, that adds nothing but tq. So I would say go with the bore motor, and use the nitrous to make up for the tq it would have if it was a stroker. I dont know if you get what im saying but some just may understand it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
