I probably know what you guys are gonna say, but I want alot of opinions. My engine has 130,000 miles. So... what do you think. Some have told me I can, so long as I don't abuse it, some have told me go ahead, and some told me not at all, so I don't know what to think. What do you guys think? Thank you very much.

Hey, whats up "tons of torque"! Anyway, i would say yes, if like mentioned above, if its all set up right. For how long, who knows. I have no personal experience with the stuff, but from what different people have said, some have good luck with it and others do not! Just be prepared to have a back up plan incase things go sour. Personally, i wouldn't do more than a 75 shot myself, but then again i am not one of those guys who breaks things on purpose just as an excuse to go with something better and bigger.
