AllZWay Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Jerry... I knew you could easily make some, but I didn't know if you had the files to cut them. If Mitch hasn't already given his away I will get with you. I need to get the upper sizes. I have 32-39mm...but since I am only trying to knock down a couple of hp.... I need the 42-47mm sizes. I will have to go dyno to find out exactly what it is going to take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADVENM Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Are these metal or plastic plates? This past year one of our LS1 guys plastic restrictor plates cracked and got sucked into the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who was this and what happened? Was it one of the plates I have had made? I forget who specifically but I remember his car seeming to pass us with relative ease during one of our races a few months ago. They teched the car after the race and checked the restrictor plate. Turned out there was a piece of it that broke off which explained his passing us with relative ease. It was assumed that the piece went into the motor somewhere.

MHISSTC Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I forget who specifically but I remember his car seeming to pass us with relative ease during one of our races a few months ago. That really doesn't narrow down the LS1 field much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wastntim Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I could use a complete set of these plates. Anyone that has a set to sell or can make a set, please let me know. I was looking for them last year and never found them. Luckily or unluckily, my engine builder screwed up my engine and it never made full power.

Cody-good to know the ones I have had made didn't have an issue. Though still curiuos how it happened or what is different about the plates? Thickness, material?

I can make a few sets on my laser and ship them to you. These would be the LT type NOT the one's BL gets made for the LS. I need to know who all needs them and what sizes. The ones I used to make for Boudy had some that were way to small for our current power levels. I would think four or five plates would be enough for anyone but I don't know the sizes you guys are using. What range smallest to largest.

AllZWay Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Jerry... I am thinking they probably will need to run in 1mm increments from 42mm to 47mm. What does everyone esle think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowBolt Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I'm going to make five sets of the 42 MM to 47 MM. James gets a set and wastntim gets a set. We will run these today or tomorrow. Anyone else needs a set please say so now. You will have to stamp the size into the plates. The laser does not do a good job of this unless I take forever doing them and since I'm giving them away.......... JJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koserv Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I'm in for a set of LT1 plates to 47mm if they're still a set available. Drop me a line kos(at)smallbytes(dot)net Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnett Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Can anyone tell me if the LT1 or LS1 plates happen to fit an S197 Mustang? The Mustang mounting holes are 135 x 70, the bores are 72mm center to center........even close? PS I know we probably need smaller hole to get to the 2013 HP levels but that is a different argument.
