What kit would you suggest? So many out there...
I'd check e-bay for a used but not abused kit. Keep in mind a bottle of gas is about $70 and it takes 1 bottle to run one event.

Good lord I fill bottles for 3.50 a lb. Does everyone charge that much where you are? When I use to drive my street car to the track I had to take 3 bottles, 1 for the drive to the track, 1 to race, 1 for the drive home. LOL

???? I'm not a bottle baby I just know it's not as cheap as it used to be. Although the guy that built this engine was going to hit it w/ a 200 shot

I had a NOS Cheater systen. The kit came with 4 different jets and instructions for the different HP levels. It was a very straight forward install. A few things to know make sure your fuel system is cappable of handling the extra flow needed you DO NOT want to go lean run about 2 to 4 degrees lessof timing a built motor gets less bang for the buck its recomended to run spark plugs a couple of ranges cooler a bottle will last about 200 seconds. my 71 RR with a slightly warmed up 383 would run right on 2.5 seconds faster in thr quarter on the 100 shot. I never tried any thing higher use you head when useing the juice.. good luck 
I am truckless..

I have to disagree. If you run a 100 shot, there is no way you will get 15 passes out of it (assuming only a 13 sec pass).
From my experience, at 100 shot, you will get about 7 passes, at 150 shot about 5 passes.
I  when i run 150 shot i would get 4 passes and i put new bottle in but i could get one more because you have to keep the pressure up to around 800 lbs to 900 lbs and that was in a 1/8 mile and i run 5.95 to 6.03 et .

You didn't mention what type of system you are wanting to install(fogger or plate). If interested in a fogger system, I am selling mine entire NOS fogger system, and extras go with it. It was installed, but never used the nitrous, so am selling it off. It was on a big block, so the tubing may not fit. But new stainless tubing is cheap enough, that with what i'm asking, still save money over new. My sleeves & sleeve nuts would be re-usable. Asking 1100.00 for everything. I can send pics & list of items if interested. Also have three 15 lb bottles that i'm selling. Might be too big a bottle for you, ? If interested, i'll give you more info. Also have bottle mounts that fit 1 5/8 bar. If interested, can e-mail me, bob at purpleiceracing@kendra.com

So I have a '68 Barracuda with a 413 C.I. stroked 360, 10:6:1 Compression, Edelbrock RPM heads (out of the box, no porting) air gap intake, holley 750, hughes cam with .248 duration, .550 lift, Mopar Performance Dist. Elect. ign and shumaker headers. I was wondering what a safe nitrous combo might be for a little extra oomph. I have a Rat Problem I need to take care of.....

Pistons make a huge difference!! I would also folllow a rule of thumb and take 2* of timing out for every 50hp of nitrous you run. Start there and read your plugs and make small changes.
