What jet sizes you got to play with? What pressure was it set at when you made that last run?

Ok, according to Koehler's Nitrous Master Program you were at 5.23 N/F Ratio (5.5 psi) with 88/88 jets. Next step leaner would probably be an 88N/84F at 5.5 psi which would give you 5.74 N/F ratio. If it's still fat, then 88N/82F at 5.5 which would be 6.03 N/F ratio - which should start getting lean there, you should look at the plug strap and see where your timing is too. 8 degrees is a good place to start, but it might want a little more or a little less. If you put some more timing in it, it is usually a good idea to add some fuel too at the same time because that's going to put some heat in it - especially when you're getting close on the tune up.

Don't want to sound like a chicken turd, but I would tune what you've got before going to the next step. What I mean is, I would change the fuel jet to a smaller size and make sure all is well before I would go up on the nitrous jet. But, I guess everybody has got their own way.
'87 S10 stock suspension, Caltracs, 9" rearend, 1.82 Glide, 383 SBC,
Brodix Track1 Heads, 14:1 compression, 180 shot plate,

Still Tuning, more to come.
