50hp shot with hypereutectic pistons?

I am currently building a mild 350 with hyper pistons, would it be safe to use the NOS Sneeky Pete kit (50hp)? I am not planning on going to a bigger shot, just want that little extra. Thanks for any help.

That's no problem at all. Although, you'll be filling the bottle after every use and it only lasts a few seconds.

not a problem, but
sneaky pete is too small to be good for even 25hp.

You need a 2 or 3 lb bottle at the very least to support 50hp for a whole quarter-mile run.

Thanks for the replies, yeah I was kinda wondering how long the bottle would last. I guess I'll save up for something bigger.

If you read up on the Sneaky Pete, its only good for a a tenth or two. Save your pennies and get a real kit.
