Default Custom plate?

I don't care for my cheater plate. Never thought spray bars were the best idea. The easiest fix for that would be the NX or ZEX perimeter spray plate, but I've wanted to try something and I was wondering what you guys think.

I have a directport that i've been putting off installing. So I have 8 nozzles sitting around. I wanted to take a 1/2" carb spacer and install 4 of the nozzles into it. I think it would work much better than the spray bars, very simmilar to a perimiter spray plate. It could be either 2 on each side or 1 on each side and 1 front and back.

your thoughts?

what intake is this on? why not install them in the runners? Your sort of losing the tunability of a direct port by doing that.

I was thinking the same thing. Use it as a direct port to get better tunability.

I'm running a Victor Jr. For now I like the ease of the plate. Don't want to drill and tap the intake yet, thinking about going with a Super Victor in the near future.

I can see a distribution nightmare in your future. You're still on the stock ls2 bottom end correct??? I don't want to sound negative, but do it right and drill the intake if you want to shoot more.

Good Luck
