I have a 4.8 5spd w no cats and exhaust and cold air, tb bypass. Does this engine come w forged pistons?

 

No, it has hypereutectic pistons I think, and it will handle nitrous. The Wood Hauler has a 2002 4.8 and has 125 NX wet shot on it and has had for about 1 1/2 years with no problems.

 

what mods does woodhauler have? and ive got 110,000mi on it too still ok for nitrous

 

Go check his profile, I do all of his work but I can't remember everything. His truck has about 80,000 miles on it, I think you will be fine.

 

125 shot is fine, anything more you will need to think about upgrading the fuel system.

 

It can and it cant just dont go cheap,get the needed safety,and make sure you have a good tune and you SHOULD be ok!

 

Just for reference Deckhand ran a 13.1 with his 4.8 on a rich 125 shot and no bottle heater (low pressure) - just get a wet system and jet it rich (larger fuel jet then recommended) for some added safety if youre worried about it

 

what other mods did deckhand have?

if i can hit low 13's wiht my truck on a 125shot and basic boltons...id be happy as a kid in toys'r'us

 

i dropped from a 14.8X to a 13.4X in the same nite with a 100 nx shot (52/28 pills) with 80K miles on my truck. don't have a single safety device. no WOT switch, no window switch, no FPSS, in fact i still have the 87 octane hpp3 tuning and tr55s in my truck. i wouldn't recommend doing that, as the DA the nite i ran was well into the negatives and it was COLD so i wasn't worried about detonation
