Default Nos ok on a stock engine???

Is it bad for your engine to run nos, a 75-100 shot. If it is, what parts should someone look for before the install the nos so it does not damage anything, besides a new fuel system?

your stock fuel system will support up to a 125 shot of dry nitrous. You will need the following parts to insure safe setup:
NGK TR6 spark plugs..gapped at .35 to .40
(these are one heat range cooler plug, and are non platinum)
MSD window swith with low pill 3100rmp and high 5800rpm (this will protect from tranny damage etc)
92 octane or higher fuel!
That should help you get started.

Before you order, read every post you can. Understand the limits. NOS is great, very addictive <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .

Like said before, get the window switch; NGK 6's - gap them about .039

Read everything. Look at members signature. See their mods and safety switches.

Good Luck

David
