Question Nitrous on basic stock setup?

So yeah I've got the juice bug and I was going to take the long route. You know get headers, nitrous cam, low temp. spark plugs and Trickflow heads first before any nitrous. But I'm wondering what would happen if I took the other path? I have a CAI on the way, catback, and other basic mods. So the basic question is how will a basically stock LT1 handle nitrous oxide?

LT1 or LS1?

Either way there is no cheaper way to make your car faster. You could easily run a 100-125 shot on either motor and be safe with the right gear (window switch, fuel pressure safety switch, etc.).

I would do the nitrous first and then add the other stuff as you get the cash - assuming you dont blow it all on filling the bottle .

LT1's love nitrous, and make nice torque from what I've seen.
