I just bought the Holley Wet plate kit, I haven't installed yet, I'm waiting until I have the whole shebang, Window Switch, Bottle warmer, guages, etc. What are some important tips when using this/racing? I'd really like to keep this motor at least for a little while longer.

A few good ones would be make sure your fuel system is up to par for your mods/shot size. I see heads/cam listed but no fuel mods, IMO if you haven’t done so already look into a Racetronix pump kit. A fuel pressure safety switch wouldn't hurt either. With the window switch don't set it to come on below 3K. Did you advance your timing any with your tune? If you did you might want to pull it back out, either with a nitrous tune or a LS1 Timing Tuner (will allow you to run full timing NA and pull it when you spray). Change out your plugs to a colder set (like a set of NGK TR6s). I'm sure there are a few more that I'm missing.

I have the SVO 30#, for the fuel if I'm only going to spray a 125-150 shot do I still need the racetronix pump? As far as the tune, that will be taken care of with the install. The plugs I was aware of, but thanks for the info about the pump, and the FPS switch. I'll look into those. Sending you a PM about one of your products.
