this should give you a good idea of how we modify our plates. Its really simple, and when you do grind it, it doesn't have to by 100% exact. But before you mess with your plate, you should look into getting some gauges, especially a pyrometer. ---AutoMerged DoublePost--- Attachment 52290 |
if i grnd the plate to 100 and only slide it half way should i still have guages?
|
GET GAUGES! unless you wanna leave it stock, it will save you alot of money in the long run
|
Gauges are a good idea no matter what. If nothing else they can help diagnose any problems as well as monitoring your investment.
|
if i grind it and leave it in tis stock postion will it be okay? i dont have enough for guages so thoase will have to wait but i dont want to wait on powering it up!

Youre still adding more fuel than stock - I wouldnt touch it unless I had a pyrometer installed.

You say you don't have he money now for gauges but if you grind the plate and start enjoying the extra H.P. with out monitoring exhaust temps then you definitely don't have the money for a possible rebuild. Get the Gauges!!! |

Listen to what they are telling you about the gauges. I installed gauges 6 months before I installed my first plate and that was 8 years ago. Spend your money wisely and get at least the EGT gauge and for a few dollars more a boost gauge minimum of 60 psi:U:.
