I would put a forged piston in it if you are gonna spray it that hard.

This is kind of one of those "how high is up" questions :)

Spraying NOS requires forged pistons...the stock cast pistons are going to be scrap pretty quickly with anything over a 50-75 shot.

So once you're that far into the engine, it becomes a question of budget, etc...because you're basically doing a complete build.
