largest shot on a plate system!! what is everyone hitting with there plate system?
i just ordered mine, im hoping with my new motor i will only have to hit it with around 100 worth of spray to run my 9.50 class, but towards the end of the season im thinking bump it to 250 or 300 to try for that 8 second slip again.
i know alot of people have plates and think this or think that, but has anyone accually done this? how are the rear holes? lean?
any info would be great.
thanks

#7 and 8 are going to be the leanest cylender do to the air smashing the back of the intake in turn flowing into the path of least resistance being the rear 2 openings in the intake.
now put fuel and nitrous into the mix, and it is going to do the same thing in turn running more into the rear holes.
thats where i think limitations will come in on a plate style kit.
they may flow 500 worth with no issues, but will it work correctly with the ls style intake.
anyone can say yes or no, who is accually doing it?

if i could go 300 through a plate i would go with a setup like that over direct port, but i dont want to ram the back of the intake with the juice if it really distributes that bad

I really don't see how the distribution could be that bad, it's just an open plenum, but anytime i've ever burned a plug, it's always been #1 which is opposite of the theory it all goes to the back, unless all the fuel is going to the back?

well, it looks like the 250 should be no problem, possably 300
D, funny, every time i burnt a plug its been # 7. even on NA motors.
i guess its different for everyone

Haha, you didnt last long with your N/A only plan - Its April and your asking about 300 shots 
Im doing a HSW 90mm plate but not spraying more than 100-150 and would go dp if I wanted more juice but you know your NOS.
