nitrous

i just finished building a new 400 with TMI's zero deck flat top pistons in it with a crane 272 adv, duration cam with full roller rockers and a set of hedman 1-3/4 elite headers, all this is in a 72 swb f-100 2wd, i was wondering about using nitrous with those pistons, for sure not more than a 150 shot, i also have a choice of intakes, i'm running a weiend right now, but i do have a holley street dominator stuck back in a corner for future use, also this setup willl be run with a 750 dominator carb, what do yall think?

if you do try it, you better make sure it's fat enough on fuel and you have an ignition system that takes out enough timing when the spray comes on. 150 might be pushing it a little? and you're gonna need octane too! maybe a separate racing fuel supply for the spray bar?

yea i was plannin on runnin sunoco 112 race gas in it when i go to the strip, i say 150 but i had a 100 shot on a maverick i sold a few years ago and it'd break teh tires loose in any gear with 3:00 gears adn a mild convertor, that was my first experience with teh stuff, worked pretty good other than i had a set of 69 model heads ported for it and spark plug heat was very limited to say teh least, plus the fuel pump and or lines wouldnt flow enough to keep up,
