Default 2wd Trucks Running Nitrous

Not being bias about 2wd or 4wd...lol, but this would only apply to a 2wd running nitrous.

I was wondering...Have any 2wd trucks running nitrous bought a 4wd selector switch with the 4 buttons (like out of a Z71) to use as nitrous switches (engage system, bottle heater, remote opener, purge)????

I bought one for $30.00 (Part #15709327) to try to keep everything looking factory. But, now that I have the switch, I'm not sure its gonna work without major modification (which I cant say I didn't expect).

Anyone tried this before or any ideas?

Is it safe to run as big as a 150 dry shot? Does it make you run lean?

I'll find out this weekend...lol! I have the system installed for the most part, but I'm still waiting on the bottle & a couple other items to complete it.
This kit is what NOS Tech recommended for my "stock" 5.3 truck....so we'll see.

If its too much, I guess I'll have to charge up the card to modify the motor and rebuild with better parts or be without a truck for a while! (Although I hope it doesn't come to that this soon), especially in my life situation now...lol (99silver, you know what I'm talkin' about)
My real concern is hooking up, need to get that posi!

SO, ANY IDEAS ON THE SWITCH? ANYONE DONE THIS BEFORE?

Got your mail.

I also sent another email to Oxidizer.
Hopefully he'll respond soon!

If anyone figures anything out or knows anybody that could or has before, please let me know.
