I'm not a NOS head but I believe so, you have forged pistons and would want the correct ring type/head gaskets/ign curve for NOS. EDIT and enough fuel delivery capability to match it

same here never used it but have studied it im intersted in using it the forged pisto are key.
I do know your going to have to retard timing two degrees for every 50 hp or something start rich and work your way back reading plugs im going to shut up before i lead you wrong.
Also for the intake if you have the clearence the M-1 is a good intake
