I think you should spray a 200 shot

I wouldn't say TOTALLY safe, but you should be okay. Do a leakdown and compression test, if they come out ok, go for it. Maybe get some ZEX spark plugs too.

There shouldn't be anything wrong with just a 55 shot as long as your engine is in good condition right now... Just make sure you run a little more fuel... You don't wanna run lean

You'll be fine just as long as you use the right kit and have it installed correctly. With a 55 shot you should not have to pull any timing or run colder plugs either 55 sprayed the right way is perfect for a stock setup.

from past experiances a wet system is not ideal unless you are running a turbo or a super charger. It will cause puddling in the intake manifold and I have seen many times where it has top fired and my filter has actually caught on fire, had one blow through my fender. For a small amount of horsepower like you are looking for a NOS drymanifold kit or a ZET kit will work best. If you are seeking a high amount of horsepower form a kit then it's ideal to run a direct port kit.
