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.

 

Yes i tune with hptuners and i know ill.need a bigger fuel.jet because e85 uses 30% more fueling, but what i need to know is how much of a shot will the solenoids and lines in this kit suplort running e85
Thanks

 

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!

 

So whats a good jet to start with for e85 and a 150shot, also i have read that reading plugs with e85 is different than gasoline

 

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

 

What fuel pressure?

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

 

58psi and yes stock rail

 

I would start around a .045 jet.
