Default How much juice?
Lets talk about how much is everyone that has a stock bottom end spraying? Im think about pushing my limits to a 250 shot of stock bottom end.

250 seems to be the limit pusher on the stock gaped rings. make sure the tune is spot on and some race fuel never hurts. is this a nozzle, plate or direct port setup?

If you got the tune spot on and kept track of what the plugs are telling you it should take it. This is all saying its a healthy engine

using a progressive controler will buy you sometime also, it will ramp up the shot over a set period of time(30%-100% over 1 sec or 2,3 etc.) Its better on the rods then just craming 250hp in one hit

Plenty of LS1 guys running 250 and they live for ever, it seems. Like others said tune, good fuel, and prayer should keep you going for a long time.

the stock rail can handle the fuel, just make sure that your fuel pump will be able to keep up with the demand or
