thinking about going on the bottle

iv been really considering adding a nitrous kit to my truck but im afraid im pushing my motor to far. its a 4 bolt main 355 but its got a lunati cast crank, lunati forged lightweight pistons and i really dont know what rods i have, i just know they are 6" rods for the short pistons. my bigest fear is the rods. it was originally a circle track motor. i was thinking maybe just a small shot just for the cooling effect. im making around 8 pounds and im spraying methanol. ive done it all, the only thing left is nitrous.

o yea, forgot about that poor 4l60e, its suposed to hold 700hp(yea right) says the ebay store that the previous owner bought it from for $1000. its been holding great but who knows how itl handle even more power.
