Can anyone tell me what plate number this would be? The guy said it was an 8 but dont look like my 8 i have here,,, the one on the right is a stock plate. Also when i install that new plate, do i adjust the govenor arm up so it touches the tip of the bottom nose,, or do i have it touch near the bottom of the plate? Thanks

 

I don't think it's a TST plate, perhaps Banks or ebay homemade.
A little similar to a TST #6 below except with a smoother profile rather than steps (easier to make)


The gov arm should be adjusted to the pointed tip or slightly below it. A plate like this with a tip above the bottom of the plate is where the gov arm adjustment becomes most critical.

 

Ok thanks,,,,, from what i know he bought the plate from a place in canada, its not homemade as its a 1 piece plate. So this plate will most likely take his Auto out soon if he pushes it to hard then? lol like that would ever happen

 

IMO Grind it to a 0 and call it quits

 

I would,,,, but he hauls RV Trailers everyday with it,, and I am sure with a 0 plate his EGTs would run very high,, this way, he should ba a wee bit safer , that is After the the new goerands trans gets put in it lol

That plate looks like the one that was in my 180 pump when I got the truck and I was told by the PO that BD in Abbotsford tuned up the pump. I would guess its a BD #8

 

Looks identical to a banks plate pic in my gallery


I dont think its an 8, ive been told its more like an 11, I never knew for sure, Instead i sold it not too long ago..

When I saw the pic I thought it looked like your Banks plate Rick!

I have also heard the the Banks plate is pretty much an 11...
