Mileage? I would say it will run like a champ for awhile on 100-150 shot. Anymore is pushing it!

z28inohio

the motor has about 4000 maybe 5000 miles on it

125-150 should last quiet a while

z28inohio

how much are you guys running? Its my dd so its going to be use for the street 99% of the time if that matters.

As long as you set your car up for it properly a 150 shot will be fine. . You might invest in some tires though

I would go with a plate kit.

150 shot properly installed and maintained would last quite a while....... anymore than that and your nitrous tuneup is going to be the determining factor on how long your pistons last....

the motor has 4000/5000 miles and was rebuilt with stock pistons???? why????? I mean hell even Keith black makes some cheap forged pistons that are cheap and better than stock...

z28inohio

this maybe a dumb question but whats a plate kit?

z28inohio

it doesnt have stock pistons the motors bored 40 over sorry about that

Even if is 40 over are they forged? If not its not going to last as long as you want. A plate kit is just that a plate that sprays the nitrous and the fuel usually rigght behind the throttle body Nitrous Outlet makes some really nice stuff forlt1s

z28inohio

yea there forged

Did you also use the stock rod bolts or upgrade to ARP's, what about oil pump? It's not a "stock" bottom end if it has forged pistons. There's a HUGE difference.

bigj2717

iTrader: (15)

Yeah you need to know exactly what's in that bottom end before you start spraying so you know how much it will hold and more importantly how long it'll hold up to the spray

z28inohio

i know that the pistons are speed pros and the oil pump is aftermarket

Speed pro makes hypereutectic and forged you need to make sure their are forged. And what rod bolts are you using stock or arp? Because if their forged pistons and stock rod bolts those are the weakest link and will break.
