Like EVERYONE already said, your motor will def be able to handle more than a 150 shot but I would go with a 200. A 200 shot of nitrous will throw you in your seat man. And for the street its more than enough.

isnt tuning of nitrous more important than the size of the shot in terms of reliability? just curious.

Im not sure if I would say that its more important but it should def be tuned without a doubt.

i have a 306 with all clevite bearings eagle Hbeam rods scat 4340 crank and keith black forged pistons with 1fr heads and a big cam with a high LSA how much nitrous would be safe i would not be using it all the time
why do you need nitrous man...dont you think you have enough already? geezz..nah jk.. my friend is spraying a 150 wetshot on his stock 302 for like 2 years. the only way your going to hurt something is if you have detonation.

well i havent actually had mine dynoed but i've hear im makin arund 385 to 400 at the ground is what the ppl at a local mustang place i just heard the keith blacks were ****ty but idk and i mean im not positive it has all this stuff in it but i mean the guy i bought it form said it didim pretty sure about the rods and pistons but not too sure about the crank just b/c that a lot more money maybe i will go with like a 175 shot but still whats the best kit
i'd go with a 200 shot, and your motor should handle like nothing. definitely get it tuned. i don't care what somebody who knows somebody that's sprayed blah without a tune...it's not worth the risk. + you will have better performance. i doubt your car is making over 350whp with your current setup. you'll know for sure when you have it tuned though. good luck

Theres no such thing as too much power! Theres such thing as too much power to handle......... but not too much power
