Default Anyone running a front and/or mid plate?
I have been seriously looking at running a front and mid plate on the new motor with a 400 shot. Madman has them on his web site and was wondering if this is over kill or just what the doctor ordered. Should be somewhere around 1100rwhp on the bottle. What is your opinions!

I'd say go for it and use them both. I plan on getting both for my car once i'm done building a motor.

I have a motor plate on my car, but no mid plate. We did however make a rod that attaches to the block and the frame rail diagonally to stop the motor from wanting to more foreward/backward.

I'm not making anywhere near 1000 hp though
