Default Adding Nitrous to a stroker?

The 422 for my Z06 should be done by the end of this month, but before I take the car up, I had a nitrous question.

Without building a specific "nitrous" motor, would adding a 100 shot to the stroker be a significant risk to it? It would be something I would use at the track 99% of the time, and in those circumstances only in 3rd and 4th gear(5th would probably be necessary as well). Because I'll be going all motor most of the time, I don't want to de-tune the car to be conservative for use on the n20. Besides having a forged bottom end, what is really neccesarry to safely use a moderate amount of spray?

I don't plan on this being a "nitrous motor", but with my limited driving skills I wanna make sure I get that 10 second slip

Thanks

You can spray a 150-200 shot no problem on that 422.
