that is what I thought I should do so I hook up a switch on 
and a button switch so I can hit it for a short time and not when it is shifting. will the drive shaft make it ok I was 11.88 so with 150 shot will it go 11.25 and live.

Maybe I will try 100 shot first. Will this car handle 550 at the wheels. I have heard the floor pan will blow up. Should I get frame connecters. I want to be ready and not explode something. Will the plastic intake hold up. I am ready to try it if you guys thing the car will hold it.
I've been spraying 150 running low 11's no problems. Left the line with just over a 200 shot. Pulled a 1.483 60 foot pulled around and staged again. BOOM!!!!!!!!! no more rearend
Just spray it.

225 psi cranking pressure? That is alot. What is the LSA on your cam? You need to pull at least 6 degrees out for a 150 shot. 2 degrees per 50hp is what I use. As for the 10 bolt, good luck.

I only TRIED that much after I had a rear end and transmission. The motor liked it though.
