I am working on a 2.2 ohv and I am getting a p&p head, full 2.25 exhaust, 4-2-1 header, intake, roller rockers, and a pulley. What else should I do or not do so that the motor can handle nitrous? I dont want a big shot, prob. like a 50 or smaller if they have it. Also it would only be used once in a while. the motor has a little over 150,000 miles on it, but runs good. BTW its an auto. Thanks for the help and patience
a step colder plugs. most ppl here use NGK TR6 or Autolite 103
and 93 octane gas

You should be fine on that small of a shot. If you really want it to handle get good internals. A pulley is not going to help the motor handle Nitrous. You need to also keep a check on fuel pressure..

Im also running a 75 shot of ZEX. I just havethe plugs and 93 octane. Had it on there for a year and a half.... no problems... Mines also a 97 2.2 cavy
vrooooom
you say 35 shot now but after about a week I bet you post, "Whats the maximum shot for a 2.2 ohv?" lol, but no for that size shot your more then safe with plugs, 93 and a heavy foot
Thanks guys, yeah I bet after the first time I will be addicted and want more, but I REALLY dont want to blow my girlfriends motor. LOL Just in case I cant control myself what is the biggest shot I could do that would be safe for the motor still?
50 shot. you might be bale to push it to 75

I gave it two tries at 100 on 93 and it took it. I'm too afraid to keep it there though. What a jump from 75 though. 1st gear is wayyy too short, 2nd gear pulls really hard, 3rd is the same, and that's where I let off.
But a 50shot will keep you satisfied for awhile until you race a descent car and keep with it, then you'll want to up it to 75 to try again, then more, then more, then BOOM haha! But have fun and all you need are colder and plugs (ngk or autolites as previously mentioned) and premo gas.

Bball-Even think of getting a progressive controler so you can spray more? The thought has crossed my mind quite a few times. But I think I'm going to hold off to spring I have other projects I need to finish
yes they are brand new.. if you want them just e-mail me.. forget writing here since this isnt an open selling form

Well the progressive wouldn't let me spray more per say, it would let me gradually increase the shot throughout the different gear shifts though. I have a little write up for nitrous that's talking specifically about J's and nitrous that will be posted soon. It has what mods I would do for each shot/stg of nitrous, which I thought was pretty informative.....
You won't see me posting alot until next spring/summer also so I can really have the funds to get this nitrous build off the ground and running....

^^ I hear ya. I thought about doing a write up as well but I'm lazy and I thought the ones they have were good enough. I might do wiring diagrams for all the safty switches though. i would draw them in ms paint. lol When spring comes I should have my programable dis 2 and hopefully I will be direct port 100shot with a progressive.
But I need to get my 86 coupe box rolling again. I got my new carb, Msd 6AL , Longtubes, roller rockers, and control arms sitting in my room. but I want to get a 177Weiand mini blower on it before the cav goes direct port. So I'll see how much i can save over winter to get things rolling. Otherwise the caprice will be on squeez as well.
Sounds sick man, keep us updated on both projects, especially the oldschool cause that one sounds like its gunna be the shizz!

i have a 97 2.2 5 spd with 109,000 mi ive had a 50 shot on it for 3 years now with no problems. you should have no problems with it, everything posted above is true 93+ octane and plugs being the most important. ive always used sunoco 94.
