The ls1s in the cars are taking 200 shots all day long on a good tune but you gotta remember they are the hose for less total amount of time since they get up to speed quicker thus the motor isnt subjected to as much abuse. That high a cylinder pressure with just a hint of detonation and bye bye EVERYTHING motor related.

i sprayed a 200 on a stock internal 5.3. can't see the 6.0 being weaker or stronger. but that was only twice that i sprayed it that much. it made zero et difference.

well i run a 175 dry shot and i think it is safer in my opinion. trusting the computer and injectors to do the compensation cause i hate trusting fuel solenoids they go out and could be quit my injectors want. or if they do i will know on my o2 readings. which i run two fuel pumps one 255lph in line from speed inc i would say the 6.0 should handle it as long as you have gas i will definately tell you at the end of this month how much they can handle i will take it to its limits i promise. nitrous junkie

ok so i went to the trck with my 150 shot and it worked a little too good, i spun all the way down the track. I ran a 10.80 at 93MPH but every one said it looked and sounded great so i was happy.

i have had no problems running it, it shows i am a little lean when spraying, but nothing that a 255 in tank fuel pump wouldn't take care of, these motors are very strong and can take a lot, there are a couple on here that i know have hit there trucks with a 250 shot more than a few times, when i have a spare motor, i will let you know how much it can take
