Well i dunno my buddy has a cam only ls1... with a 150shot it put down 530rwhp... You might not need as much of a shot as you think.
And you already have that cam? Considered anything a lil more aggresive? =p
And hell yes! Raise the compression! Nitrous + Compression = sex. =)

as far as compression how much could i mill it and still be able to run 91octane? (93 is hard to find around here)
haha... you ever think of cooking a fuel solenoid and burning down the motor because of it??
Got to take that into consideration! Stages are better. And if its a stock motor they reasonable to buy out the yard anyways.
Just put the nitrous on and spray away... put a lil money to the side for a rebuild and wait...
but with a 100-150 you prolly will spray it forever. Most kits seem to be rated at wheel Hp. The friend who put down 530 rwhp on the 150 made 380rwhp n/a

well im looking for around 340-350 NA maybe more with higher compression and worked heads if i find the time/money i am going to start out at 150 and work my way up and maybe eventually adding another stage at 100 so i have 250 total or just do a progressive 200 shot

With 91 octane and trying to stay safe to account for a bad tank every once in a while and spraying a big shot Id go somewhere in the mid 10s. I was running 11.3ish:1 compression in my 418 and if I got a bad tank on 93 it would ping and rattle like a tin can on a hot day.
Low timing, good fuel, and rich AFR will help that motor live with a 250 shot.

Whatever you do, unless you set on the looks of a car intake don't bother swapping an LS1 intake. Not worth the hassle on your setup. Not to mention the truck intake is comparable to the LS1 intake cfm wise.
