well, the motor should be able to safely handle a 75 shot...but if I was you I'd try a 55 shot and go up from there... how many miles does the engine have on it? that also will make a difference...

YOu need to enrich the mixture some how or you'll blow. I would invest on a bigger fuel pump and bigger secondaries.

The venom set up will keep a safe nos/fuel ratio, so you shouldn't have to worry too much about that. But you still might want to get a better fuel pump and step up to TII secondary injecters. Invest in some good spark plugs, and if you really want to be safe, upgrade your ignition.

Is the venom a wet or dry system? Either way...upgrader your injectors to some TurboII secondaries(540 or bigger), getting a good ignition system like jacob's(lots of $$$), or Crane Hi-6(much better for the $$$)...that should be all you'll really need to worry about if your not using it on a regular basis. Also, if you are just using it for drag races, just run a lower fogger(50 or so)...and have the switch set to hit at W.O.T.(wide open throttle)...most good nitrous systems come with an adapter for this...its the safest way to have nitrous set up....
