Alan,
Then would we need a larger TB to accommodate the 150 shot?

You might as well stick with the 100 shot and no retard, I'll bet the 150
minus
2-3 degrees would be about the same.
The stock intake is more prone to backfires with the 150, that's where the
real
problems are for the V8's.
The "beer barrel" design of the stock intake will allow fuel to puddle in
the
plenum, because it isn't designed to flow enough cfm of air to accomodate
150
extra hp. All it needs then is a ignition source, then BOOM goes the air hat
and
you're off to the paintless dent repair to get the ding in your hood fixed.
The M1 intake is the way to go for 150hp Nitrous, and up.
