Looks like a wet kit on the right. Note the red and blue fittings in the spacer.

Why would there be a red and a blue fitting like on my wet kit. Bue = nitrous Red = fuel & = wet kit unless they are showing a plate that does not belong in the photo. (photo on right)

"This" is a dry kit right?? I see TWO solenoids,so what is the other for(if it is a dry kit) a Purge? or is it a Fuel for a Wet kit?

The two solenoids go in series on the NOS 5177 kit for the LS1. This way if one fails to close the other will, making it almost 100% failsafe against a stuck 'noid. Wet kits do not use redundant solenoids for the exact opposite reason: the risk of one failing to open doubles when you use a redundant setup, and that is an equally or perhaps more dangerous situation than a solenoid being stuck open.

The 5177 kit for the LS1 is definately a dry kit.
