Building a 87 TPI Vette Motor... Want to use nitrious
I have a 350 motor out of an 87 Corvette with 90K. I am swapping this motor in my 87 GTA (The GTA original motor is a 350) I am going to build it using a Lengenfeltr cam kit and super ram intake setup. I am also having the heads redone with new valves roller rockers etc. I now have saved up enough money and I want rebuild the entire motor with all forged parts, and get the fuel injection nitrous setup from NOS. I will also be getting my computer reprogrammed and accel 30lb injectors. Does anyone have any suggestions about what company I should buy from for the forged rebuild kit or did anyone do similar setup to what I am doing and can tell me about it?
Mods already done to my motor
MSD 6AL, MSD Blaster Coil, Eddelbrock TES ceramic coated headers, dynomax highflow cat, flowmaster 3inch cat back single outlet exhaust, March 3 piece power series underdrive pulleys, Holly 52MM throttle body, TPIS fuel pressure regulator, ram air hood with ram air intake setup

The kit is adjustable from 100-150 shot and I will be using it at 100.

Dude, you can pray a 100 shot on a stock motor. Change the plugs for 1 step colder and retard you timing 3*. Then spray the **** out it.

Don't get me wrong, forged internals will put up w/ a lot more abuse, but if don't plan on going bigger than a 100 shot, its not worth the time and money.
