Default Can i bump up my shot????

I am running a NOS 5177 Dry kit with a 125 shot now. I recently installed a Racetronix fuel system and a set of Ford red top 30# injectors. Do you think i could bump up the shot to say a 150???? All other mods are listed below, tell me what you think.. Thanks,,

On a stock rotating assembly? I dont know. I'd say your pushing the limits....

As far as the rotating assembly goes, your fine, the TNT wet systems put out ALOT more than a 5177 kit, and people run them all the time, just make sure your not going lean and you'll be fine. Good luck!!!!

Go for it, I have. If you want the real jet sizes for the 150rwhp, let me know. Dual .043's as NOS specs is 150hp at crank or 127.5rwhp using 15% drivetrain loss. Remember NOS over rates for safety.

I would bet you will be lean on anything bigger than your currently running. I would switch it to a wet kit. Much safter and will hit like a ****. `
