hey craig the kit i sold you isnt a powershot plate. the guy that sold me the kit used 100 , 125 and 150 jets. N.O.S. says the powershot kit is preset to 125. take the hard lines off the plate and see if a set of jets fall out.

hi tim, i took the fitting off and it just has a ferrul on the steel line into the plate.i've got a dual carb setup so i wanted adjustable plates.if i run 2 powershot plates thru 1 powershot solenoid will that make the total less than 125hp each?i don't think my bottom end will handle 250 hp. maybe its time for a rebuild.

I believe the powershot plate has less oriffices on the spray bar and no jets compared to a cheater plate. so you would have to drill more holes in the spray bar.
I would try to find adjustable plates and 2 sets of solenoids, just to be safe.

if you use 2 plates on 1 soleniod you will run less then 125 shot. if you run 2 plates youll need to run a distrobution block from NOS to the plates or from the distrobution block to 2 nitrous solenoids then to the plates.
