Looks like the middle 4 cylinders get plenty of 'juice' but less for the front/back 4. . .

^^ that is the truth. i had a similar plate. i called nitrous express to get jetting recommendations for it, and they said nope, wont work. they said it will not get the correct amount of nitrous or fuel to the rear and front cylinders. they told me to go with the stage 6 perimeter plate. definitely the better plate! you should look into it.

That Zex plate is actually a really good piece, I wouldn't use anything else they make, other then that actual plate, but the plate itself is a good piece.

I had a little delay with a guy getting me a engine diaper made. But I have it installed and set the motor back in it tonight.

It is getting even closer. I have all the fuel lines done. And the nitrous lines are just about done. The nitrous is completely wired up. The tranny and cooler is finished.

I'm down to a few little things and that is it...

I should be out driving it next week.....

Well I got it fired up today after a little scare over not getting the oil pressure up while cranking. I had to fire it up to get it pumping good.

I'll be hitting the road a little bit to get it sorted out over the next week or two and then it is off to the track we go.

I hope it all goes good.

Not yet. I had a deal on a zex plate but someone else swooped in on it before I could pay the guy. I will run this one until I get one.
