nos on my 85 trans am 305 tpi

does anyone have a picture of what it looks like with the nos hooked up . i think it would look really cool . plus my car is slow, my dad beat me with his 98 aurora with 250 hp and i think some nos would be a sweet way to get some more hp.the engine has 51700 miles on it . i was thinking of maybe a 75-100 shot of nos. would this be safe on a stock engine.

Your engine is quite old. How well it holds up is a matter of how well it was maintained. Unless you are the original owner you can't answer that question. If we are only talking about NOS on a stock engine, then yes it can be done.

thats what i thought about 75 hp or 100 would be good. I would put the sprayers in the nostrils of the ram air hood so it looked like it was snorting.
