Nitrous

Well I was finially able to get my bolt on Z to pass the plug in test so now i feel like modding it some more. I have long considered nitrous for it. Its a 6speed with 65xxx miles. I'm sitting here with my credit card in hand ready to order the kit but not sure. Its not my daily driver but I also dont want to blow up the motor. Right now I dont really feel like digging into the stock motor I would rather just build a nice low compression blower motor for down the road. Should I spray the car? Yes or No

As long as you do your homework and set it up right, you shouldn't have a problem with a small shot of nitrous

I dont think you will have a prob with a big shot. Make sure you pull timing, get it tuned, and plump everything well i can see a 150. The NOS 5176 isnt that bad.

22-0 I have a buddy who was contemplating spraying a 90k LT1 he has yet to decide what power adder he wants. S/C or Spray. Spray IMO is better since your not putting pressure on the motor 24/7.
