Like the title says what shot are you running on your stock bottom end and what's
Your mileage on the motor. Also how's the motor holding up.

Thanks Raul

Just hit 50k miles. Stock bottom end with ARP ProSeries rod bolts.
Last fall I hit it with a 200 shot for a bottle's worth. Handled it fine. But then again it was only one bottle.
Likely staying with a 150 from now on.

Would a 175 shot be pushing it on a stock bottom end? I would have H/C and n2o tuned together.

If you have a good tune & fuel system, it should be fine. The stock bottem end can handle a 200 shot. My buddy has been shooting a 200 for 3 years

I know a guy who is running a Progressive 175 shot out here with a 75 off the line and a 100 shot at the sixty foot. He has TSP 5.3 Heads and a Custom Grind Cam 649/609 109 LSA and running 11.9 at 5,800 feet.

You will need another fuel pump or switch your out to a 255, and you might need bigger injectors. Not positive on the injectors but it probabley wouldnt be a bad idea at that point.

Have you done a compression check on each cylinder yet? Just Curious with that much mileage if you have or havent?
