Default how much nitros is to much

i have a 1994 bronco with a 5.0 and about 150000 miles. i have a friend that will sell me his nitros systom for 200 bucks with a 125 shot. my question is, is this to much for a stock motor. it runs great i just want to spin my tires faster in the mud. i have a 10 in lift and 36 in tires with 4.56 gears.

Running nitrous is all about the tune and having all the proper fail safes in place. In a stock 302 you should be able to run a 100 shot just fine, but make sure to do your research on how to do it right. BTW it spelled N I T R O U S. Nitro is completely different fuel that is used in Top Fuel drag racing, I don't suggest you mess around with it.

You'll know if you have too much nitrous when the motor blows
