#5 or 6
With #5 Plate Thanks! That is exactly what I was looking for. One of the other things that I was shown, is that you can turn up (is it the?) fuel line pressure by removing the large allen-nut located just to the right of where the fuel plate goes.

#5 or 6
Could one of you guys send me a picture or illustration of a #5 or #6 fuel plate. I am running a #10 right now, but I wanted to get a little more power, so I wanted a pretty good idea of what mine needs to look like whe I grind it down a little. Thanks.- jdb32

Remote Fuel Filter
On the 12 Valve that I just got, the previous owner had a "Prime Loc" remote fuel filter installed. Does anyone know how good of a product Prime Loc makes, etc.? Other than relocating the fuel filter, what purpose does a remote fuel filter system usually serve? Thanks. Josh- jdb32
