Question 231/237 TSP cam and 5.3L Patriot Heads Got questions??

I have a 231/237 TSP cam and 5.3L heads from Patriot. How much will the 5.3L heads push my compression up. how much nitrous can i run with this set up and stock pistons??


Thanks
Chase

up to 200 if you tune it right, but wont last too long like that. I would max it out at 175 and call it good. Thats what I ran for a long time, but with a Walbro 255 intank pump.
