Yes, you can jet your car to whatever you want, within the limits of the installed system on your car. I assume you have NOS' 5151 kit on your car? Since you want to go lower than the 100/150HP jets they give you, it shouldnt be a problem. Give them a call and they will tell you what jets you need.

I had 50-hp jets made by CompuCar.

NO2 = 0.046
Fuel = 0.026

NOS can make them too. Jets are interchangeable within manufacturers.

A better question might be why the heck you would want such a small shot...You might gain 5 tenths with the 50hp shot. Atleast jet 100hp man; its not going to hurt a thing. I ran 150hp shot on my TPI 305 for quite a while with no problems
