Default Testing carb plate tomorrow

We finally are getting everything wrapped up, but the combo is:

stock bottom end
PG with Chance bolt-together converter
stock heads
232/234 615/618 cam
GMPP ported intake
sheetmetal elbow
NW90
NX gemini twin carb plate...very trick looking piece.
Holley blue pump running the above

We are going to start with a 150 shot...which is really the second stage. Once that is tuned in, we are going to hit the first stage, which is a 200 shot. If all goes well, we'll blend them together

I'd like to make at least one pass with it and see if I can get some low, low 6's. When this motor goes BOOM, the ET headed 396 is going in!

Any words of wisdom from the pros?

Sounds like a nice set up.
I'd be suprised if it holds both.... the plate kits I've seen make more than advertised power (200 shot make 225 to the wheels) which is like a 300 shot to the motor.

But it should make for a hell of a show


The 396 ET sounds badass ...

I have a 370 with Et's on it

GT plate is a 10psi unit. The blue pump???? make sure you do a flow test to confirm that pump can keep up.

We did some pulls tonight.

355 on motor
550 on a 150 shot
650 on a 250 shot.

This is with around 10 degrees pulled out and a VERY rich AFR. I think getting the AFR up to where it should be, it will make around 670. I want to put some fresh bottles on and make sure it is all ok. It will be a week or two before I get it out to the track.

This looks be a killer setup so far. Plugs looked great. It could handle some more timing, but I'm going to leave that area well enough

Yeah, these NX plate kits hit hard. Mine made 760 at the wheels with a 200 shot with my NX plate on my 408.

Which Gemini Twin are you running? The Stage-six or pro-power? Just wonderin as I am in the market for a NX kit. I am selling my fogger system to fund the new plate system. Thanks!

What are the jet sizes for the 150 shot?

Like I said they make way more power to the wheels than a standard N20 kit.
