Default 1988 Mustang LX take zex 100 dry shot?

mustang mods 88lx hatch

I have an 88 stang that I am looking to give a boost in power for low cost

Motor mods

Cobra intake
75mm tb
75mm maf
Electric fan
Underdrive pulleys
Cold air induction
Port&polished e7 iron heads
B303 frpp cam
411 gears
T5 trans 5speed
Luk pro gold clutch
Aluminum driveshaft
31 spline axles

If I put a zex 100 dry kit on how will this work with a stock bottom end? I know 302s r pretty tough up till 500 crank hp where they fail. What would this give me for power and would it work with my mods? Or will it just be a grenade motor?

Car runs 13.1 at 108mph 60ft=2.0 street tires
With nitrous time? Mph? If anyone knows or has similar mods
Thanx for the input and advice in advance

I think a 302 could handle a 100 shot, but if I were you I would go with a wet shot. I recently read that a wet shot is alot more dependable and easier to control because the NOS is mixed with the fuel rather than sprayed through the air intake.

how often is considered staying on top of it ? And what should the timing be set at?

that basically means to get you tune right (timing ,plug ,fuel pressure)

it requires not a lot more than keeping up with regular tune up

for the sake of safety i would read the plugs after every bottle once you get the car dialed in....
