Default nitros???

Can nitors be run on a stock ls1 motor. If not what mods would be needed for its application? Also is there any shops in the st louis are that are good at instaling it? thanks..

I'm going with a 75 shot of dry after the H/C install. Seen people do 125-150 with no problem. However you may find you need a few more things then the basic kit. Remote bottle opener, blow down tube, bottle warmer and RPM switch to control what rpms the nitrous kicks in. I will also have a second bottle as well.

As stated above too go to the F/I section for more info.

Good Luck

Brad

im in st .louis also and im doing nitrous pretty soon you should be fine with a 100shot. im planning on doing it myself but i asked around to see how much people charge try beir brothers in st.charles they charge 700-800 for the install which is more than most kits cost but they can do it also check PBJ(performance by joe) on hampton they also have a dyno.if you have a stick definately get a window switch you dont want to hit the rev limiter with the nitrous on
good luck
