plate w/ dual plane

[dirtbag]

to clear things up, does using a plate system on a dual plane manifold cause fuel/nitrous distribution problems?

[mrr23]

never did for me. the nitrous plate also acts like an open hole spacer. helps share on both sides.

cool beans, thanks a lot. :)

just make sure the holes in the spraybar are pointed down and not up.

NO, never, dont, stop --- it WILL --- if not now, later, go boom.

Back fire, burn to the ground type boom.

why is that? guess i must've been lucky. had a NOS plate on an Edelbrock performer RPM intake on my old 79 z28 years ago.

There are a few things you wanna check with a dual plane intake. Make sure the spray bars are not obstructed by the intakes design. Also the best setup for a dual plane is a "TWIN" style plate system. This type of plate has spray bars on the outer sides of the plate rather then a center or crisscross patern. A great example is the Nitrous Express Gemini Twin plate. The plate come in 2 versions the Stage 6 and the Pro Power. the Stage 6 part # is 60040 and is good for 100-300HP. The Pro Power part# 60540 and is good for 100-500HP. both are standard 4150 carburator flanges, and are available for Dominator flanges as well.:cool: :)

Best thing to do is limit the amount of power to about 175hp with a dual lane and a plate. Up to that point you really shouldn't have any prboblems. It may be possible to go higher by changeing plate designs but the chances of problems goes up.

Hi

I have been running an Edelbrock performer RPM manifold with a Edelbrock Nos kit for the pass 2 seasons with a 125 shot with no problems.

I ran a Weind Stealth dual plane that was ported and the center divider milled down and polished to a razor sharp edge.I ran 250 hp thru it on a edelbrock plate and never had issues.First time I popped a gasket and gutted a plug was after putting on a victor jr.It happened on the first nitrous pass.Kinda wish I did'nt sell the weind.
