Spraying a 383 LT1 with N/A ring gap...how big a shot?
Spraying a 383 LT1 with N/A ring gap...how big a shot? I'm curious as to how much spray this engine can handle. Its a 383 stroker with the following parts:
Forged Callies Crankshaft, Forged Callies rods, JE forged pistons (11.8:1), Splayed 4 bolt mains with billet caps, CNC ported lt1 heads, 226/236 114 lsa cam...400 rwhp N/A
The motor was built with running N/A a priority, and am unsure what the exact ring gap is, but I'm assuming it is not quite as large it might need to be to spray more than a 150 shot...I would like to make around 650 rwhp, what is needed to make that work reliably? How much spray can a JE forged piston handle with a ring gapped for N/A? What kind of nitrous kit will it take to get me to my goal?

now days the bottle ratings are pretty accurate. so im guessin its right around the 150 mark if thats what your spraying .. id go with at 200 shot max if i were you. your motor seems to be able to handle it..
the reason for me saying its pretty accurate i was watching speed vision and they were testing a 100 shot to see what it does on the dyno and it came to 98rwhp.. and 150 was like 146.
