Could I run a 350 shot of nos?

If I had a forged crank, forged rods, forged pistons, a jacobs nos box, msd ignition box, and dual high performance electric fuel pumps? I only plan to run it once at the track to see what it will run. I can turn it down after that.

That is not crazy at all. It sounds like you have your bases covered. Forged everything, proper fuel supply, and proper timing retard specific to your application will allow you to run a 150 shot with no probs.

Even if your motor can hold up to it you will still need giant injectors, and a drive line that can handle it. Don't forget the new tranny, new rear, new driveshaft, and rear suspention and slicks.

Yeah 350 shot is a little steep. I'm gonna be running a carb. I'd need racing gas and colder spark plugs for a 350 shot too. I think I might go with a 200 shot instead. It says 92 octane and octane boost is good for a 200 shot.

My bad...I need to stop quick reading. I agree, a 350 shot would be a little too much, unless money grows on trees for you.
