Default LS7 Nitrous

I'm curious as to a couple of questions:

a) How well have the LS2/LS6 engines been holding up under nitrous? They seem pretty darned beefy on the bottom end...

b) Does anyone make a complete and well engineered system that would work on the forthcoming LS7? By complete I mean timing retard, window switch, connects properly to fuel rail without hose clamps, etc.

c) Where can the bottle go on a C5/C6 coupe?

Thanks!
- Dave

Don't know about the rest of your questions......but in a C5 coupe a 10 lb bottle can be "hidden" in the center storage compartment.....

a) very well, some people are spraying a 200-250...and up to a 300 shot on the motors.

b) i'm sure the kit won't be much different as the throttle body, motor, etc. is in similar location as the previous cars.
