I think its all in the tune....no matter what you will be pushing your stock internals. Also you will absolutely have to upgrade your fuel system, get every safety switch, and dance with the devil to keep your motor together for very long. I would not run anything over 125 shot personally, and I only run a 100 shot through mine.

150 shot, you have never been clear about your current mods (from what I've seen)...if you are going to break 450hp or 450tq you might as well save that 150 shot for the last time you run that motor right before you drop in a new forged shortblock.

I would stick to a 100 shot, a 125 would be pushing it in my opinion.

Dont forget about your suspension, many people forget the suspension and think all about motor.... that best type of drag car is a balance of suspension and motor..... 150 shot would toast your rear end, time for new axles :-p
