Default What is next weakest link and what esle for engine

I have a 2000 mustang. I finally managed to free up some money for some upgrades and wanted some advice. I just bought the 4.6 to 5.0 stroker kit with forged crank, manley h beam rods and cp pistons. First of all this stroker kit will raise the compression to 10.42to1, which from what i read is ok with nitrous. With everything being forged i was wanting to know what the next weakest link will be. I am planning on running 150 shot with rpm switch and professional tune. I have the 255 fuel pump upgrade, bolt ons, new stage three clutch so i am thinking that the setup should be safe. Let me know what u think. Thanks

Motor wise on the 150shot it will be fine as thats really not alot of nitrous at all. The next thing I would worry about breaking would be the axles or posi on a hard launch with sticky tires. Also you say a 255lph pump, I hope you didn't get a weldon or bosch unit as those are for return fuel systems and we have returnless.

And Nitrous loves compression so no problems there.

Where did you get the stroker kit from? Agree with Spike on upgrading the rear.

If you are forged upgrade the rear like spike said and get a direct injection kit cause then you can spray even more without having to worry about problems associated with fogger kits above a 150 shot
