The Ebay plates are good, I am on my second one. First I went with a #100 now I am tuning with a #10. I have $65 invested in fuel plates rather than several hundred for the name brand stuff.

Why bother with a #0, if you are going to run a plate at all, run something that has a function. The silver plates from that vendor are better quality than the stock plate. The black ones from others are very good too.

No they are for folks who live in the real world and prefer a smooth driving with reasonable smoke control and controllable egt's. They also work great when running a tight governor setup, it makes the truck drive like it did from the factory.
I know its a big trend right now but its not been about making good power, its about doing it cheap.
