What's the biggest shot of nitrous you can run in a KZ1000 engine that doesn't have the timing tuned? How big do you think you could go before you'd have to start upgrading internals? Just curious...

Yes really. Will a wet 40 shot pop it?

It may be allright for a very short burst but why try. It's a ton easier to pull some timing out than it is to tear the motor down to repair not to mention a butt load cheaper.

Be carefull. Use it sparingly or you too could have a custom artifact. No more than 2 second bursts. Or spend the money on building a rock tough motor

:laugh: Had a buddy bring me a head that looked a lot like that, wanted to know If I could weld it up. Bunch of spray and propylene oxide don't work well together.

For starters, if you're using OEM pistons, you'll blow the ring lands off

Getting MTC 1075 pistons soon, everything is rebuilt fresh, but no other aftermarket parts... Reason I asked about the timing is because I'm not prepared to sink the money into a big shot and the motor work that goes along with it, I just think it would be a fun novelty to be able to open up a small 30 or 40 shot for a few seconds every now and then. Not racing it or anything. Just wondering if I can do it reliably for fun. Also when it comes time to sell it'll be a little extra coolness factor for the potential buyer...
