I've owned and love both. Love that nitrous torque and being able to race people on or off the bottle. Hate filling bottles though. Pretty much love everything about turbo cars.

Never had a nitrous car and before I started to build my TA I never been in a turbo fbody. If I had my choice I'd stick with turbo but if I'd have an NA car i'd throw a shot on it for sure.

Turbo plus a wet shot is cool too.

Turbo is what I enjoy, but I've always wanted to mess with nitrous. Wish I had the cash for your car. My younger brother and I are going to build the LT1 Formy I have laying around.

Good thing I have a fill station a five minute drive from my place that I have 24/7 access to.

That's convenient. There's nothing quite like an extra 200-250 lb/ft of torque putting you back in the seat. Can't even imagine these cars spraying 300+.

Only doing 150 shot on stock bottom end.

But yes, the motor will be built for a pretty large shot.

I'm going to take this opportunity to call you a *****. Stock bottom end will handle 200 for a long time.

Better safe than sorry, Scott.

There is a strong chance the motor will be built before spring as well. Either forged stock cube or forged 370
