There are some things that you shoul ddo or find out from the current owner before looking at nitrous. First thing that you want to find out is the specifics of what has been to the car. You want to find out the fuel system that is currently in the car.
Something you might do as well is find out the power that it is making on motor now before spraying anything. The power level that it is at now would help us determine what you could spray.
Is the rotating assembly forged or is it stock?
Really give us as much information on the car so that we can figure out what would be best for you.

Could not find cam specs on the papers i got. I will try to see if im missing some more build sheets. It has never had nitrous im tryin to find a kit and knowledge on how much to shoot and be as safe as possible. Thanks
There are plenty of stickies about nitrous floating around. They will help to point you in the right direction. As someone else stated it would help to know more details on the car as well as what your goals ET / power wise.

Im happy with the ET it runs now but u always want more. I highly doubt ill ever see 9's of any kind but i would be estatic to see it break 10's. And be safe. Let me know anything else you want to see and ill get it. I'll look for cam specs.

If i could hit your times i would never come off cloud nine. From comparing your built to mine it looks relatively close to me, i guess if i push hard enough it could be possible to break 10's. Your car looks and sounds sweet!!
I appreciate it man. However, our setups are completely different. 408>stock bottom end cam only
