Default TNT system on top of S2 heads

I have ARE stage 2 heads(2.055,1.6) and a TR224 cam with every bolt on. I want to run a little nitrous on top of my setup already. I have 430 RWHP and was wondering if I could run a small wet shot safely or what it would take to run a 75 shot safely. Thanks.

A good pump (Walbro 255lph intank maybe) some NGK TR6 plugs gapped to .040. Also recomend a fuel pressure safety switch and window switch to cut Nitrous 100 rpm before fuel cut. Since youll be at a high HP level, the margin for error will be slim. Dont want to go bouncing off the limiter at 500+ rwhp while spraying ya know <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

Im running Stage 2 heads and a split duration cam. I make 410/405 on motor. Been spraying a TNT 100 shot for 6 months(about a bottle a month. On the spray the car made 538/709. I havent had a problem yet. Only thing I did was put in a Walbro pump from ARE and some TR6 plugs gapped at .038. You should be fine on the 75 shot <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Chevrolet]" title="" src="graemlins/camaro.gif" />

You pretty much got it. I have (from back to front) a Walbro 340 intank pump (modified my ARE, Awesome job BTW) TNT wet kit (100shot), purge, warmer, window switch, mocro switch, TR6 plugs gapped at .038, nitrous pressure gauge(included in TNT kit) Fuel pressure gauge (not needed, but a good safety) and about 150 bucks in dyno time making sure AF was right and no detonation. Hope this helps. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

What about tuning and timing? With the tuning for the head/cam combo, won't there be too much timing? And if tuned for nitrous then the motor would actually be detuned when not spraying. I was told that my timing would need to be decreased if I wanted to spray nitrous.
