    I've seen guys running 175 shots on stock engines with a good tune and setup. I would do that myself because I'm adventurous that way. Get a forged shortblock with nitrous pistons and rings gapped for nitrous for durability. It also would help to have new steel backed bearings in the crankshaft to handle the additional forces.

    Id be more worried about what the tranny can handle. I think it will pop way before the motor does.
