Default LQ4 Bored 60 Over On Nitrous

Looking for the guys that have a 6.0 bored 60 over...Question is how much nitrous are you spraying? Will it hold a 200 shot before it cracks a cylinder wall??

Of course with a failure of the rotating assembly, but has anyone actually just cracked a cylinder wall?

It happens on LS7’s all the time, which have a thin liner. I’m guessing this is what the OP is alluding to. I’ve got a SBC that’s .060 over with a 250 shot on it, but that’s a different sermon for a different day.
There are many .065 over 6 liters out there, and I’ve not read of any losing a cylinder. Not sure how many are on juice...

Ramp it in and don't do it down low, should help it last.

I don't have a .060 over 6.0 so I don't have a dog in this fight but I've never heard of someone cracking a liner on one
