What kind of compression are you running? Nitrous likes compression.

100 shot is easily safe just get a dyno tune since ure heads and cam eat up some extra flowing air...

You will be fine as long as the tune is good and run at least 100 octaine fuel when you are spraying.

Ahh see now before you said you had 10.9. You really need to figure out the actual copression ratio, not just what the pistons are, things like chamber volume, valve depth all make a differance.
