Of course it will work... duh! But you might be out of gear on the top end.

I think I did some calculations awhile ago...and a 28" tire with a 4.10 gear brings the effective ratio down to a 3.89 or something...

On 26" tires with a 3.73 gear and 100 shot, I'm right at the rev limiter.

Stock cam?

I'd say that you could run it through the 1/4 and still be fine. It really depends on the converter and how much it loosens up on the bottle.

i'm talking about to take advantage of that big of a cam. That cam wants to rev you want a pt4400 type converter with a cam that big. If your going to run a 28" tire might want to step up to 4.30 with that cam

A pt4400 and nitrous don't go together. He had that converter and got rid of it to spray. I had another buddy that tried to spray at 100 shot on a pt4400 and it didn't work out to well.
