Ride plate opinions?
« on: April 24, 2016, 09:00:20 PM »
Getting my turd faster and wondering if the hardware in water is robbing me of mph or take off... Any ideas of ride plate with out removing intake
Would it help my take off from dead stop ?

You need the later nozzle,  a ride plate might help the boat take a clean set,  but doubt the difference on launch would be dramatic.

The latter Diverter nozzle has a wide flat bottom that can really enhance performance.

Bolt on shoe/plate from ARS marine or HTP... Discuss your hull with them an set up prior for proper cradle as there is tall/short. Kit comes with spacers. You do not need to remove intake. Quick image pic on my install.

Smokin deal... this cradle is meant for a JC bowl but will work on a regular split or just get a new one. The plate can be replaced easily if you desire a longer one.
