The cheapest vender I've found is self. You take the AFC housing off and remove the plate. Only cost you time.

 

[TJarecke]

Last time I checked TST had their plates on sale. You could look there.

IIRC, PDR offers a 10% discount to TDR members.

Dont pull the plate, just spend the small amount of money and get a plate. Its definitley worth. for the $200 it costs, you are gaining A LOT of power. Guys with gas engines would kill to gain that much power, or even half that much power for $200.

where do you get a 100 plate or is it have to be made?

 

[Turbo Thom]

Jim, I don't believe it. You disputing me. What's the world coming to?

[TRCM]

Well, I have a TST, and I'd say use them. I know if you get say, a #11 plate, and decide you want a #10 later on, you can exchange your old one and for 50 bucks, get the new one.

It's funny, but anytime, anywere I'll pull the AFC and show you the #6. One thing for people to think about is that it is calibrated on the stand with that plate, but it works.

I ordered a 10 plate from piers plus they recommend the 3k spring kit. after reading the posts both tst and piers are well respected, piers did a little better on price.



looking forward to putting them in if it warms up.

Back to a question that was asked earlier, what about the plates being sold on ebay? Are they any good or does anyone have any experience with them? I am about to get a #10 plate and was debating about buying one off ebay. You can get them on there between $99 - $139.

 

[JGheen]

Where are you seeing the plates on e-bay?? I have searched and searched and can't find any plates for sale on there. I am looking for a #4 plate and I would rather not get one from TST due to the price and you have to get the kit with the template and boost elbow, which I don't need. Could you post a link to where they are?





Thanks, Joe

Jim... ... ... ... I have a #10 plate in my tow rig but nothing in my race truck. From a metering standpoint, what the difference in the 6 and the 10. I've never had enough fuel deliveried that I needed to meter it. Just got all the fuel I could and motor I could and motor on down the track.



Have I gone wrong?
