I have run several bottles through a 150 shot on a stock L98. I believe those are cast. You should be fine with the hypers w/150.

BTW, the boys at Shafiroff call that a 'play shot'. hehe. Must be nice to play with the big toys.

Yes, running a 150 Hp shot is possible with a dry system but will be more reliable and durable with a wet system. But both will reduce the durability of your engine. Reliability is in reference to early hour failures and durability is in reference to the useful life of your engine.

87TransAm5.7TPI, is that the Harwood cowl hood on your car? If so, how did it fit and how well do the edges match up?

Thanks.
