Default H/C guy,thinking of N2O,need some N2O education

mods are in my sig. i am running 11.1:1 comp. i was thinking of either the TNT or the NX MAF kit. i will probably go with the NX kit because one of the guys in our local fbody club is a distributor. he has run juice for 15years & never lost an engine.he will be doing the install as well & the tuning. i know i plan on a upgraded full pump & a window switch, & need to take the Platinum plugs out.i am currently getting a clutch upgrade & am going to dyno tune the car with LS1 edit. what things should i pay special attention too,is there anything else i should get. the engines saftey is the most important thing to me.i also plan on a purge kit & bottle heater.would the higher compression poss a problem with 93oct. i want to do this but i want to make sure i am doing this right.just don't want to see the engine blow because of something i did wrong.i have been reading on here all i can in the past week so i learn as much as possible, but don't see to many things about H/C cars. most are stock or bolton cars that i have read about. thanks

It looks like you have it pretty well covered. Just start with a 100 shot and test it on a dyno if possible with a wideband O2 sensor.

You should also consider a fuel pressure safety switch. If your fuel pressure drops off (for whatever reason) it disables the Nitrous. That way she would get lean on you real quick and hurt something. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />
