if i do get a super charger and NOS what should i do to my botom end its the stock 302 with 125k miles on it and i dont wana hurt anything and suggestions?

 

If you dont want to hurt it or break anything you might as well park it or sell it. The stck bottom end is good to about 400 RWHP so you should not have any problems with a 100 to 150 shot of nitrous. As for a S/C on a stock bottom end it all depends on what other mods you are going to have along with the S/C. Again 400 HP is about it for the bottom end.

 

Do nothing to the bottom end. If you want to add a power adder, do it. H/C/I and a 150 shot or 10psi. Take your choice. I'd take it to 500rwhp and not think twice.

 

i agree with full auto. I have heard many times the block and the internals will hold about 500hp. Im still running the 100% stock shortblock just make sure you have a very good tune

 

i would start with a new block

 

So you guys are saying that a stock block is able to handle 650 HP at the crank? No way it will split in half.

 

stock block and 400 hp no problem somewhere around or there after 500 hp you start having problems but there are a few lucky ones that have pushed the envelope but sooner or later it gives up the ghost!![&:]

 

Thank you.

 

How many have you split?

 

They aren't lucky. They are competent.
