ok, anyone know wher eI can get one of these TB plates for an LT1? I got my vortech elbow an dI wish not to drill into it.

thanks for any help!

 

well just to keep in mind if you get a 58mm throttle body you will have to take a file to the back of the thermostat housing to get the throttle body on there and you might have to do it a stock throttle body as well

 

I want to keep my stock TB, I just want the plate so I don' thave to drill into my vortech elbow.

I plan on selling the n2o kit someday and want to keep the Elbow

 

Summit sells the NW plate setup. it works OK,but could be MUCH better IMO.
I had/have the NW plate,worked great,but definately was limiting the cars potential. Now it is just sitting on my bench.

 

does anyone just sell the plate? I don't thin I need anything else. :/

 

you might be able to get the plate direct from NW.

Or email me an offer on my plate and i just might sell it,not doing me much good.

 

i dont know the part # but summit sells the plate with jets and gaskets for 144.00 i think. if you call them they can find all the info for ya.

just for the record , i personally like the plate over the shark nozzle but thats just my opinion.

 

I would have to agree. sharknozzle seems so, old technology, ya know? :/ Drilling and tapping and what not. Plus my Elbow ripped yesterday when I was readjusting the shark nozzle. so..... it's time to purchase the plate so I can get my Vortech elbow in.

thanks for info and if anyone ca get me the Part #, that would be uber rad.

 

FWIW i picked up 3/10's and 3 mph using the same exact jets and swapping from the plate to the Shark nozzle.

IMO the plate would be MUCH more effective if it had more then 4 holes per bar per side. NOS's old plate had something like 30 holes per bar per side,much better atomization.

But i understand the desire to not drill the new elbow,good luck.

 

Anybody ever tried drilling a couple more holes in the spray bars so they flow more/better. Just an idea. The reason I ask is because I have a LT1 plate also, and I'm not surprised a nozzle might work better.

 

I have a nos plate for sale, it will come with 14 foot of feed line. I also have a 52mm throttle body for sale.

Let me know if interested

is NOS interchangable with NX?

send me pics of the TB plate. We'll talk.

Thanks!

Send me an email dmgov@netzero.com

 

If you're just wanting to not drill your elbow, then relocate your IAT sensor to the air filter. Then put the shark nozzle in the stock IAT sensor hole, using the NX-supplied special threaded nut.

That's what I did with my 1LE elbow and it works great and no extra holes. Hits like nothing else!!

 

would that not be more dominant to the left cylinders? i dont know truly but it seems to me like it would

 

Due to the fine mist the nozzle puts out, I don't think a slight pointing to the left would matter, especially considering the speed at which the incoming air is moving.

Also, when logging, my O2 sensor values read almost identical on both sides, indicating there isn't more n2o on one bank than the other.
