Default soooo will I have issues

Im installing my nitrous outlet kit and will be spraying a 200 shot on my H/C frc. Just put in a twin disc rst to handle the power that the ls7 couldnt. Wondering if im going to have issues with my headgaskets being that im using stock headbolts, and stock headgaskets on my ls1. I am going to have lethal performance in SA do the dyno tune for me

Start saving for a motor. Your best bet on getting the motor to live would be good fuel. Lifting a head would be the best case. Ring land is most likely if doing this on pump gas. Buy a dedicated or do e85 with a timing tuner or something to pull timing. 200 shot and pump gas are not a good mix.

You can install studs without pulling the heads doing them one at a time

I have a nitrous Dave's dedicated fuel system if interested. Run super in the car tank and c16 in the dedicated and when spraying you have the octane needed for safer N20 operation.

Well I will have timing pulled for the spray. Im not going to just throw that much spray on it without getting the proper tune.

Do you have a link to doing the studs? I have never heard of doing that.. Send me some info on your dedicated setup.. I am interested..

I heard that a timing twister by msd is the thing to use to pull the timing when spraying. Looks like MSD disc. the product so i cant buy it new.. Anything else out there?

I sprayed a 225 bone stock for.a while. I used Harris interface to pull timing. I would also run a water kit on it.

Do what the man is telling you here he has yrs behind him with these cars. Plus I say when you start moding the crap out of any car r motor YES your going to have problem with something. WHY if you do something here it going to cause problem someplace else. Just the price we pay to go faster than the next guy r try to anyway... Robert
