how much NO can you blast through a TBI?

I have a basically stock 305 TBI. I have a full exhaust including cutout and an open element K&N air filter.

I will be getting a chip and probably some 3.42's this summer, but after that I was thinking NO.

I have heard of guys putting 125 hp shots through it and it works for bottles. Can people tell me from experience how this motor reacts to NO and how much is safe without killing the car.

89 camaro 305 tbi, flomaster 3 chamber cat back, gutted cat, Edlebrock TES Headers, Exhaust cutout, Edlebrock open element, and a 160 degree T-stat. 2 kicker comp 12"'s, polk for the rest. Phoenix gold xs2300 to subs, kicker impulse 404XI to 4 speakers, pioneer DEH- P7000R head unit, and finally a 12 disc changer. Full leather interior from http://www.MrMikes.com (its nice)

yeah, its possible to even run 150 through that little 305, but youre really really pushing it. l've heard a lot about 305's running forever on 100 HP shots and l dont think its all that unreasonable l've got a 305 TPI with the stock internals, cast pistons and all, and lve been running 150 through it since christmas time. it runs great in fact l wont hesitate to say it runs better than it ever has run. of course take into consideration that you need to have an excellent running ignition system and a good fuel pump. other than that l'd say its safe to run 125 through it
