1st off if your motor is stock 1964 1/2 you really need to think about this!!!!
2nd if you have never run a NOS setup find someone who has. this stuff is great but if not setup right could be a (VERY) bad thing on your motor cast pistons only good for 75to100 hp max safely i've run more but it was on a bigger motor
even if your motor is fresh you still need to go at it slow fuel pressure fuel pressure fuel pressure get a good pump
we've run this stuff for over 20 years makes great power but you'd better respect it. lost some motors to it on a learing curve back in the day plus my buddys moto was never lift till you crossed the finsh line or the wall and he lived by it
if your just putting it on for looks yes they just bolt on if your wanting to run it start off on the fat side (rich)with your fuel
dont think you can just bolt it on and run get help or pay someone that has done this before cause theres alot more to makin it right than just bolting it on
good luck dont want to scare you about NOS but dont want to see you hurt your motor

I ran a 125 shot for years on my 289. It was Super Power shot system.In fact i've ran nitrous(NOT NOS) on everything ive owned,Chevy 1500 5.7L with 150 shot,Chevy S-10 4.3L with 100 shot and also my quad.I had a Holley blue pump t'ed off to the solenoid and it was acutated with a throttle switch(only WOT).I also worked at NOS for a few years after I started messing with the stuff.Onced its tuned, your pretty much done and can start having fun.
