Default Nitro Dave's Plate

I worked pretty hard last night & this morning to get the Plate Kit operational for the first car show/ parade today. Well I got it done & went & had a good time. Sorry Dave if the install isn't that pretty, I used some poly cable wrap to protect a couple of areas that were rubbing. All I had was white, I will change it soon.

I hit the happy button on it today for the first time lined up next to a beautiful superformance cobra with a roush 402 IR crate motor. He didn't take it too well as left him BADLY. Wish I had a video, anyway that was with a 100 shot pump gas etc. Good times. Kit worked perfect except my trick little purge hose that I fabricated blew in two.

I mounted the kit a little different as I have plans for the passenger side head

Bottle is mounted between the rear seats, line runs through hole in floor, under the car & comes up where you see it.

I started tuning my VE following the instructions in the HPT help files. Well my car has never run so good so I am going to stay MAF less for now.

Will that plate still fit under the standard engine cover?

Looks pretty good to me. As for squishing the worm, cograts. I love those cars as well. Ya know it really amazes me how easy it is today to put together a low-11, high-10 second car. I can remember back not to many years ago how much money had to be spent to run that fast. Isn't technology a wonderful thing!?

Thanks, I believe you sold me the kit I'm the guy from Montana. Very happy with it, I am thinking of getting a second bottle setup so I have an extra bottle filled & ready to go.
