466 Dove -A block ported A-429 heads. Cometic headgaskets, with 14:1 Diamond pistons Eagle rods stock crank. SV-1 mafia intake and I'm putting a glide in. Will this combo handle spray or am I asking for trouble?

Was it set up for nitrous ie; ring gaps piston clearance..., if not I would keep a mild tune in it. Barney is good with the nitrous he could guide you better than me.

I think you can spray up to 250hp without worry you have good pistons and rods watch your tune and let it eat

You should be fine at 2-250 as long as your tune is safe. Start with plenty of timing retard and keep the split fairly tight to start.

yes...........

dont buy a kit off ebay etc, Its nice to get a complete kit from Steve at I-S or the like thats been blueprinted and flowed, takes the guess work out of unknown components....... even jets can be off. Plus it comes with 24/7 tech support etc.

I used an old bigshot plate earlier this year and the thing would layover with anything bigger than a 75 jet due to the bars leaking.

i s nod that, don't go cheap on it...you'll be sorry for sure. Start low and sneak up on it, or have someone who worked with your system prescribe your initial tunes.
