nitrous on -se 13b carb swap

I've been thinking about putting a little nos on a -se with a holley carb kit on it and would like to know if anyone has tried it yet. The engine has good compression and the carb swap is new...it has the msd 6a box and is converted to direct fire. I guess i would really like to know what type of kit to use and how big of a shot to give the motor...

I am very interested to follow this thread, I want a bottle also. I've heard not so good things about the holley kit. Where did you get it, how much, and most importantly how does it run? I think you can just use a carb plate and I would guess about 75hp should be safe. I can't remember where but I think I read that.
I forgot to add you'll need a bigger fuel pump. a second pump is always the way to go with the bottle.

well..my brother has a car with that kit on it and it runs great. My car isn't finished enough to run quite yet...it just happened that while working on the kit i broke the omp lines and haven't started it since i put it on. plus i still have some electrical work to do. The pump i have is a 14 psi pumt and i have a 1 to 1 adj regulator with it...i would think that would do the trick
