I was wondering if it would be safe to run a 75 shot on a stock engine and a rebuilt trans that has a stock input shaft and stock chain ? I would be spraying only in 2nd gear and 3rd , any thoughts ? Will it be safe to run this ?

The motor would be fine, though I would run a wet shot with a controller so you can do it the safest possible way.
As for the trans, who rebuilt it and what upgrades were done? The chain and input shaft shouldn't be a problem with a 75-shot, but there are lots of failure points in these trannys, and they're usually not hard parts.

For example, you can add a WB O2 sensor to many controllers, so if you start to lean out, the controller will cut the nitrous and possibly save your motor. Ditto with a fuel pressure sensor. You can also adjust settings like not spraying in first gear, etc. I run Harris Speedworks MicroEdge and Interface on the system in my Camaro. Coupled with my WB, I have a system that makes it as safe as possible.
I'd at least look into this!
