How much depends on the condtion of your engine. Wet kits are safer than dry kits.

Does it burn oil? Hows the compression? How many miles? Condition of timing chain and its components? And then theres the transmission.

I'd concentrate on making sure the engine, transmission and brakes are in tip top shape first. Adding more power will only magnify any current problems.

So you have no idea what the compression is then. You never ran a compression test yet your ready to add power to the engine. Hey that's ok, try a 200 shot dry system you'll learn something.
