Default LS7 How much spray?

I have an 08 Z with diamond nitrous pistons, stock rods and stock crank. Looking for opinions on what the stock rods,block and crank will take, I will use a progressive, window switch, dedicated fuel, Nano kit and spraying through a nitrous outlet 102mm plate kit.
Any help would be appreciated.

Can i ask the inevitable question.....why do nitrous pistons but put stock rods back in it? my uneducated guess on the LS7 is 150-175 shot.

The rods were never the issue, he took care of that with the new pistons. 200 shot will be fine, could probably go more & still be safe, my motor is built for a 350 shot, I keep it pilled to a 200 just because 800rwhp is plenty.

I agree with about 150 to 200. from my understanding the cylinder wall is not real thick on the ls7 and I have not had alot of experience to pushing the limits on them but I have pleanty of customers doing 150 and 200 on a moded ls7 with great results.

Keep the tune in check and go with a 200 shot. That z06 should roll out nicely

I eventually plan to do this exact same setup(stock rods, crank, forged pistons) and I was planning on throwing a 100 to 150 at it. Please update when you get the kit on the car with results
