Nitrous on MAF L98, kit recommendations

So I have done some reading and searches on here. What kits does everyone like for an L98 motor? I ran an NOS Cheater kit with NX solenoids on my 1982 Camaro with a carbed 350. That was about 5 years ago and I pieced the kit together.

Now I am surprised at how much prices have gone up, specifically Nitrous Express kits.

Anyways, are there any new kits out there I might not be aware of or new companies that I haven't heard of? I see there is something called Brand X kits now?

The consensus from my reading is a plate kit is a must, is this correct as well?

Thanks in advance!

You can still piece together a kit, nothing has changed except the prices. Try to find a NOS 58mm TPI plate and everything else from a regular carb kit will work (except for smaller fuel jetting).

Re: Nitrous on MAF L98, kit recommendations

Shop around. I used a single nozzle kit from Harris speed works for an LT1 that I adapted to my setup. It would probably be easiest to just use a TPI TB Plate kit but a nozzle can work well if you can install it in front of the TB but behind the MAF.

I wouldnt try doing any dry shots thru the MAF, as I doubt the MAF can read the nitrous flow and adjust fueling enough. LS1 cars do it and I believe some mustangs have done it but dont know if the TPI stuff can handle it.

I went with the NX Universal EFI wet kit.
