getting NOS How many HP??

I do not want to spend over $550. What brand NOS and how many horse should I use? I want to use as much as possible without damaging the engine. I plan to run a fuel pump just for NOS. My specs are in the sig. Also one shot or dual shot? Can't I just hit the one shot twice?

how much nos

single or dual are the same thing!!! if you put your'e jets at a 150hp shot, that's what you'll have with the single shot, 150hp at once, if you have a dual it will be a mere two shot's of 75hp at whatever rpm you push the buttons.. if you have 150hp on both shots thats 300hp, and thats a huge explosion with parts of your'e motor going everywhere!!!! i had 150hp single stage on my 350 l98 tpi, with 142,000 and it finally spun a rod bearing, thats why i said in the email be conservitive, and judge how much it can handle with the miles and componets in the motor.....

My engine is brand new. I started with the block which had a stock 350 and rods that had nly 5k miles. Then everything else is new. How many horse do you think it can safely use?

I wouldn't go over 100hp without forged components. Go to http://www.holley.com/HiOctn/ProdLin...NOS/index.html
