I've got a friend who ran a 150 shot on his stock 92' 5.0 but he knew his stuff. Personally if I was you and you don't know a great deal about Nitrous Oxide I'd go no more then 100 until you get familiar with it and are SURE your motor can handle it.

you can use a 175 shot on them but you need to know your stuff...remember always be on the safe side with it..a 100 shot with a bigger fuel pump(190), 1 step colder plugs ,93 gas,10 degrees timing and a good coil and wires you be find
