Granted I dont know much about nitrous im not wayfast either im going to research every nook and cranny before I install any kit.
As far as motors go my knowledge on sbc 350s is growing more and more each day.
When I did my top end I researched alot and in the end had no real hands on help building it but I got it running.
Now as for diagnosing why it wasnt running on all 8 EVERY SINGE PERSON said ignition to me.
I said cam or valves. Turned out it was broken pistons and slightly bent valves.
Oh and I BET the pistons smacked the valves when I initially put the cam gear on wrong and tried starting the motor, and even then I had a member come and help me all day try to figure why it would start...gave him a set of wheels to! messed with timing the whole time...on MY hunch I tore it all apart and found and fixed the cam gear location. & he was a ex dealership mechanic and I even mentioned that to him while he was here.
I figure if im building a 383 or even just rebuilding my 357 with forged internals and low compression with a cold plug im a prime canadate for some juice. Plent of guys run 100 shots on stock bottem ends why would a 150 shot be a push for a forged bottem end?

N2O is no joke. you will want a few safety items like billy stated. and theres much to learn my friend
and if you knew what a 100 shot felt like, youd change your mind about starting with a 150 shot. anything above that is violent and youll be sure to go into the wall
