Thread: NOS in the 305

Tweet

from what i know its fine but i was going to do a bottom end rebuild to make sure i was fine wit the 50-75 shot an also would the vortec heads help me alot as well

do a search on this, there has been some interesting threads started about 305 build ups.

....I had an '84 Camaro with a cam, chip, cold air package & a 305 with nitrous and had no problems at the 100 HP level, no problems at the 125 HP level & no problems at the 150 level...... Oh yeah, don't try the 175 level like I did .... Of course the good news was that then I had a 413 small block built for it .... So anyway the moral of this story is that unless your ready to built a new motor don't try the 175 level ;0.... Nitrous is habit forming, with just a small wrench & 15 minutes of your time you can have MORE HP!!! ... Be Carefull..... I also had a seperate fuel supply for the nitrous & had the timming retarted.....With a 50 to 75 shot you'll be just fine..... Bill
