That's the one thing I have never understood about the LSx world. People spending giga-dollars on huge NA motors. A 500 dollar nitrous setup will make more power and torque than whatever NA motor you have.
im just not into NOS. i want power that is available whenever i want it. NOS is the cheapest power adder but its also the worst. im not saying this to offend you and i hope u dont take it that way. another thing is how long is my motor gonna last if im spraying it all the time? NOS just isent for me

Is it the dream build where it runs on 8 separate opti-spark units to ensure a lifetime of driving pleasure?

What are you doing for a rear end? Mine goes in as soon as Tom can fit me in. I still have a 3 rib 2 series rear end (you can do 3:90 or 4:11 in this one cuz it needs a thicker gear) and ill have my stock single rib with 3:42s that you can do any gear.

Let me know if your interested. I can cut you a deal and leave it/bring it up to Toms shop so it will save you on shipping. Even if you wanted a core to send to RPM.

Afraid of N20 lol.. Nothing to be afraid if its done with all the right safety stuff.. Window switch, duel noid setup.. Stuff like that..but what ever floats your boat then I say go for it.. Ill tell you what I'm into my motor "Including the motor " about 11k and I'm building it to last and not spraying all the time..just to give you a little info on how much it cost..

. Wonder what kind of power a stock internals LS1 would make on a spray setup done right. I'd only spray at the track. So that wouldn't be often. Wonder how long the engine would last? So, anyways who's going out to PIR Friday ?

150 shot will hold for quit some time if you put ARP rods bolts in..but if you spray all the time on the track and on the street, and im talking ALL The time, it wouldn't last that long..but who knows Some motors are different then others...

ill sell my motor for 3,200 With the fast 90. It only has 11 to 12k on it since it was re ringed and bearing. Its been to the track twice with the LQ9. It would be a long block minus the front drive setup, oil pan and coil packs. You cant build it any cheaper

Tyler is right, If you buy the right parts and have a good tune it is safe for track use but that is the same with anything boost nitrous or NA.
