Default head and spray question

i am running patriot heads stage 2, for fi. i am selling the fi and thinking of nitrous. the compression is 9:5:1 now with these 72cc chamber heads. will these hurt power numbers using nitrous? also running a blower cam.cam size is 232 int, 240 exh, lift 595int, 608 exh. lope set 115. duration .050

head valves are: 2.02 int, 1.57 exh . this is going on a 402 forged stroker motor.

If you still have the parts for FI, I would still keep going that way. I only say that because your n/a power isn't going to be anything great. But to answer your question, you can use the nitrous with that motor no problems, just isn't an ideal set up. Can I ask what size shot you were looking to go with?

I would put a nitrous kit on the car, spray the shot you want to spray, and see how it performs before you start ripping stuff apart and changing the combo....If it performs as you want, no need for that.
