Default N02 Dry Shot?

Im thinking of doing a 50 - 100 dry shot on my LT1 formy. I have a few questions:

1. Is nitrous express a reputable brand and worth using?

2. Do I need to take a step or 2 back on my plugs heat range for spray

3. Any tuning necessary for fuel regulation on spray or is that usually included with kits as a solenoid

4. Anything I should know to prevent pre-detonation or anything that might kill my motor? Thanks!

Lots of info out there on what you need to run spray safely, google and be prepared to do a lot of reading as there is debate of which is safer to run, dry shot or wet shot. Nitrous Express and Nitrous Outlet are both reputable companies that can tell you what you need to know, also Dyno Tune has a good cheap LT1 kit. an Ignition box with timing retard works for small applications , 2 degrees for every 50 hp is what I've been told is safe.
