Default how much nitrous??

what kinda nitrous shot would be safe to use on a stock 96 SS with 126k on it? cause ive heard of people blowin em with a 100 shot, but i dont know what kind of condition their engine is in, also, if aybody has a rough estimate on how much it would cost to make it a 383 that will handle another 200 in nitrous let me know.

I went through 2 bottles with only plugs. That was at a 150 shot. It broke but i dont think it was cause the nitrous.

i have 153k and run spray. It is all about doing it right.
TR6 plugs,good fuel pump,ignition system(i have delteq), timing taken out, and having a car that is in good running condition. also i saw u have an m6 so a window switch is a must.

After that if you have high miles it is possible to accelerate demise of your stock shortblock but if you stay away from knock you should be fine.
