    For your application, you need the wet kit (for carbs).
    No more than a 40 shot is recomended at this point.
    How many miles do you have?

    Please go to my site and read all you can about Nitrous, it could be a dangerous toy for your engine if your not well educated on it.

    zex = trash (tying to get that damn computer box with all them inputs to work can be a real bitch)
    building own kit or prefabbed = better plus cheaper
    you need 1 tank (the number of tanks is really optional), two high powered solenoids, 10ft of nitrous line, wiring kit, toggle and microswitch and fuel pressure safety switch (optional), fogger nozzle, fuel line T, extra fuel hose and fittings, and of course the included relay. (this is wet.....definely the way to go)
    40 shot can be handled all day long just go a little extra on the fuel pill to keep cylinder temps down.
    80 shot needs stout rods, forged pistons, strong rings and head gaskets to be everyday reliable
    In the end...it doesn't even matter.

    that doesn't make sense. That's like saying I want to buy a honda......i have chosen a dodge. Nos is a company, ZEX is a company, it's either one or the other. Nos does not mean nitrous!!!!
