Default LS2 and nitrous

Does anyone know if the LS2 aluminum blocks can reliably hold 250 shot of nitrous?

This is assuming a forged rotating assembly.

I was just wondering because I'm leaning towards a 408 iron block because

I've been told that it's stronger than the aluminum equivalent.

Thanks

From what I've read, with forged internals, you shouldn't have much of a problem running a 250 shot.

You should realize what you want your end goals to be. If a 402 with a 250 shot can't handle it then you need to hit yourself in the head with a hammer.

What?

I know exactly what my goals are. So what is your point? Why should I hit myself in the head with a hammer? Make some sense boy.
