Default Nitrous Confusion...

I'm looking into getting a plate setup for my Vic Jr. I like the ZEX Perimeter plate (P/N 82043), yet I'm confused if I can just run my LS1 fuel pressure and adjust the fuel jets accordingly?

Which brings me to my next question, where would be a good place to start with the "accordingly" adjustments?

I'm not really looking to buy a standalone fuel cell, or multiple regualtors..etc I would like to know if I can just adjust the jets to match the 58psi I have now or should I look else where.

I plan to spray 100-150 with 200 being the max.

Any info/experience helps,

James

I'd give ZEX a call. I'm sure they will be able to assist you. Have you put any thought at all into the Nitrous Outlet Stinger Plate?

Whatever their jetting is for their nozzles and stuff should be the same for their carb plate when running high pressure.

It doesn't matter if its a specific plate or nozzle because that's not the piece controlling the amount of fuel and nitrous, the jets are.

The Gemini

Obviously their crossbar would have been the best choice, but I got a smokin deal on this setup.

While learning a lot in the process.

You buy it new? Looking forward to the new build. You get a new cam for the single plane intake?
