You can run nitrous on the car as long as the engine and drive train are in good shape. I would recomend a good tune up first. What other supporting mods do you have to the car?

I would stick with a 75 wet shot for the time . This will give you a good base and you will be able to fill the car pull. With tuning you can go higher but i would stick with the 75 for now.

Any good wet kit will work. You should be able to find them for around 450-600 bucks. If you are going with a plate kit then you should still be able to stay under 700.

If you havea subscription to Super Chevy they have a old cop car with a bunch of miles on it that they've been building I believe they used and Zex kit. If you don't have a subscriptionI believeits the march or april issue where they installed the kit.

Good Luck!
