check my thread I linked in an earlier post. Stock compression 355 with bolt-ons and 503 cam.
Track times prove it too.

I'm not to sure how much I'll be pushing possible 350rwhp. I was wondering since I got it all pulled down and apart if I could get some nitrous put in it. My question is will I have any problems spraying possible 100 shot. Even to be safe wouldn't mind 75 shot.

My buddies Cam only Ls1 spraying 100 shot just got dynoed today and put down 483rwhp and supposely with crappy tune.

Be honesty what you think I can hang?

And did search it up and read all the posts only thing I got was to be safe for people to spray 150 shot take some timing out and use Nitro Dave setup.


Buy my kit thats for sale for $330 so you can come close to hangin with him and save up for h/c and then beat him.
You can make 420rwhp on a stock bottom end with a reputable h/c and you would already have my nitrous kit for cheap so you could outrun him.. I had no problem with 125 shot. Its when you start getting greedy is when you blow a motor. I probably put atleast 10-12 bottles through my stock bottom end with no problems. Its when you start putting bigger jets in when you will blow it.

I have another question I got my car all apart and was going to throw the LT4 Knock Module Sensor in it so that it doesn't retard my timing due to my aftermarket RR. But reading through some post on this people have said that you shouldn't spray with the LT4 Knock module. Is this try? Should I just stick with my LT1?
