Default that website

On that site it appears I can use a number 5, but what are the numbers in red underneath the hp rating, the 1, 2, 3, or 4?

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

Also, how do these hp and torque numbers adjust if I move the plate front and back in the pump?

The red numbers are subscripts that say the tranny from this year can't handle the power stock but I ran #5 plate for easily a year and my stock tranny held up, the only thing I noticed was that it ran a little hot (170-180 degrees) while driving in town.

I don't know the exact numbers but moving the plate forward lets more fuel in thus creating a little more power and moving it backwards restricts the fuel flow thus creating less power.l

That chart actually comes from the originators of the fuel stop plate - TST Products.

** Look Here **: TST Power Kit without Video with KDP Kit

The chart was once considered Gospel but that was for trucks that were running mostly stock parts (head gasket, transmission etc.). Now adays, the chart is more of a guide, as guys are trying all different plate configurations.
