Default nitro daves plate kit/e85

I have a nitro dave plate kit for an f-body with 78mm plate and the hardlines, it says it can be used up to a 200 shot, but i wanna run e85 through it, how much of a shot can this kit handle running e85

I wouldn't really base your jets based on what the kit says 200hit is. You should start with that as a base and go from there. They jet these kits really rich just as a safety precaution. If you really want to be safe just start will a few sizes bigger on the fuel jet for e85 and adjust accordingly.

You need to get your N/A tune dialed in and then do your nitrous tune and just adjust your fuel jet up as needed using a wideband and datalogger.

The plate system will 300hp+ with e85.

Let me know what shot size's you are looking at and I will give you the jetting.

Cool, i thought the lines and solenoids were only good for up to a 200 shot cause thats the highest jetting the kit comes with, but i was gonna start with a 150 then a 200 and if all is well a 250

My fuel system is a dual walbro system with stock lines and rails, 60# injectors

It should support a 250 shot, i was running 10# of boost with a pt88 a few months ago and my only issue was my 95# injectors ran out

Just read and tune off the plugs and get it dialed in before upping the jet. Its easy to get a hold of myself, Chris, or Dave here at the shop and we will help if you need man.

Best of luck and let that thing eat!

I'm guessing you're getting your fuel from the rail?

I assume this as well but always best to double check.
