400-600 Shot
I have not successfully made a full pass with anything over a 250 hit yet. I have hit larger shots on the dyno but not at a track yet. 400 shot is the ultimate goal...........just have to work you way up to it.

Lots of great info. Thanks alot guys!!! LS1Tech ROCKS.
Impulse buys for the win right...?
I just picked up a Nitrous Oxide systems NOS-08101-NBNOS for $600. Maxes out at a 300 hp shot. Don't know yet if my injectors will plug in correctly but a $1400 kit in mint condition for $600 was too hard to pass up. Noids sound strong and seal perfectly. If the injectors don't fit I'll sell it off to a mustang guy for a bit more. Win/win right...
I had to lower my goals after everyone's great info and parts pricing. A 300 progressively controlled shot should do fine. Thanks again for the great info.
Anyone running a FJO-Digital Progressive Controller??? Pros/Cons???

^ If that's the NOSZLE setup or what ever they call it where the injector sits in the nozzle your statement is more aptly, "Impulse buys for the lose..."
They have a habit of being very difficult to tune. They pull a vacuum on the injectors causing extremely rich conditions.

You are saying the nitrous discharge pulls vacuum on the injectors beyond plenum vacuum?
I had not thought about that possibility but now that you say it, it makes perfect sense. Heck most painting equipment works by discharging pressurized air around a liquid port at a LOT lower pressures than a nitrous system.

Yup they do and as mentioned are VERY hard to tune as they are not consistant in many application. I would not take them over a 150 shot.
We ahd one car we wnet as far as removing the N2O jets and it would not go over 200 or so RWHP

Im finally putting my wagon back together and the bottom end is built- only down size is its got stock casting heads- I used to have a single nozzle and want to go to a direct port deal- Iva already got another stock manifold to cut up- Im not looking for a 400 shot but a 300 would be nice- SOmethings gotta get this 5000lb piece of **** down the freeway

Custom built plate from Nitrous Pro Flow.... 4150 style 2 bar plate setup with integrated burst panels..... custom bent hardline from solenoids to spray bars.... i'll shoot some pics and get em up on photobucket 2nite....

If you want big power go turbo. I think its cheaper and more effective in the long run. I'm going to run nitrous in the ls1 when I put it in to my impala but later ill be putting a turbo or two.
didnt know you were running a carb. i would still like to see those shots though
yes.... optispark was removed, timing cover welded up with a aluminum insert... car runs an accel crank trigger with a MSD crab cap distributor... works great with the FAST XFI setup..... using the FAST and a crank trigger it's almost made for each other.... great ignition resolution and adjustable timing + or - 40 degrees....

dude... No I'm looking to buy a new nitrous kit... I'm going to do direct port this time. NX makes a kit for up to 250 and one up to 600. Price difference is only a couple hundred bucks. I want to put a much bigger shot on the new motor. (400...) I know I should go all forged. (thinking an eagle kit, or scat parts) But what pistons would hold a shot that big and still be able run for extended periods of time. ie, drive it to the track, and work... Any one running a shot that big on an lt1?
