Default LSA/ Lobe seperation for Nitrous

Is 110 Too much LSA for a nitrous car with around 150-200 shot?? Ive always heard around 112 is where you want to be. Just figured id get the input from you guys as im new to the LSx world

That's what I heard too, but I have a cam with no overlap. The intake and exhaust duration are the same. My lope seperation is 112..............no problems here.

um if your spraying 300-500 114 lobe separation is what you want 110 is good for 300 after that the overlap lets the nitrous blow out the exhaust and it does not do a good job at harnessing all the extra cylender pressure from the squeeze because the exhaust valve opens early.

It doesn't really matter with a shot that small. Patrick G sprays a 150 shot on a 110 lsa and gets around 150 out of it...

I'll eventually be spraying 300 on a 112, most "nitrous cams" are 113 or 114 but those normally see HUGE shots...
