What do you mean by safe? Do you mean will it cause it to leak oil or burn oil? Well driving it 5 miles can do that, but juice increases hp and will be harder on the engine than babying it.

There are no free lunches the button can be fun and if you follow recommendations only if RPM >3000 and keep ~100hp or reduce timing it is only a little more dangerous than opening up a stock motor.

My stock motor had 185k when i started spraying. I sprayed 150 shot on stock timing. Had a 255 fuel pump and colder plugs. I never had a problem with it. I pulled the motor out when it had 202k and it still look fine. ps the times in my sig. was on that motor.
