Well im getting the rest of my parts put on either tomorrow or tuesday which includes: headers, rockers, ignition, & new rotor/cap, plugs, and wires for just a general tune-up.. Im also advancing the timing....
Anyway, heres the offer at my feet. My buddy has a spare ZEX (i think) nitrous setup. I can get it for real cheap and i would run it at probably 75hp jets, but occasionaly boosting it up for a big run. Do you think this would be ok? They said it would be alright if i used it right, and they have even seen bigger shots run on stock motors. Also, im getting a new mass air meter and 65mm throttle body, will those help the situation if i got the nitrous??

you will be fine upto I think a 100 shot afthere that you would need a bigger fuel pump ,injectors
but of course you know that the more NOS you run the more dammage you will do in the long run

100shot 150 shot is no sweat

Sounds good. I still have a stock bottom end but i do have a bigger fuel pump plus wont the ignition help also? As for injectors, i was told that the stock ones will be ok for now and not to go bigger until i get into more serious engine work, so im sticking with the stock ones.
btw is nitrous considered "boost." like what sorts of gauges are required in a setup.

Nitrous is not considered boost.
No gauges are required but they do help.
You at least want a nitrous pressure gauge for your bottle.
If you have a good fuel pump an adj. regulator youll be good to go (wet system)

I think that blower you have there does a lot more damage than or 75 shots do. At least we dont have to worry about impellers breaking off flying into or motors.
