How big of a shot can i do on a stock LS2?
Ok i could not find any specific LS2 limitations but i am wondering on how big of a shot my LS2 in my GTO could take on stock everything motor wise.
If i do go with a shot i will upgrade the clutch before doing since it is the weak point right now.
Ok main question is would a properly tuned 150 shot be a safe bet?
Many of my Fbody owning friends have ran 150 shots on their stock LS1s for a few years now with no reprecussions so i am just assuming it would also be fine on my LS2.
Also if 150 will work, just how big of a shot can an LS2 take safely? 175 or maybe even 200?
Thanks for any advice in adnvance.

Its kind of a loaded question. 150 shot, no problem...once you start going ot the bigger shots, more attention needs to be paid to tune, plugs, accessories, etc. There are plenty of guys spraying larger shots with no issues but along with that comes education and experience working with nitrous. Start out small and familiarize yourself with it and then start to move into the bigger shots.
