thinking im liking the plate kit set up, do those kits fit under the engine cover and can you mount them with the solenoids bellow the throttle body(flip the plate upside down)? the sneakier the better... if you have pics of your set ups please post.
thanks, Brandon

the plate setup is not very hidden, the JMS dry kit actually cannot be seen under the hood and has really good reviews.

I like NX and nitrous outlet stuff a lot. ZEX is nice also and a lot easier to install. I just switched to a blower and sold my wet kit, but I still have a nitrous outlet billet plate for a 5.0.. it's only a couple months old, and is in perfect shape. They are like $350 new, but if you want it I'll let you have it for $150. Just thought I'd throw that out there if your interested.

Just an FYI that if you are going to run a purge kit on the NX plate kit you will need extra fittings as the feed line is 3an on the solenoid side.

I have a very nice NX remote bottle opener and automatic bottle heater in the classifieds also btw ;)

I'm a little confused :(
I am currently running a purge with my NX fogger system.
The fitting at the plate is 3an? dang it...

Yeah, I don't know why they did that but I had to buy an extra fitting and line to get mine going. Those parts aren't cheap either.

Can't I just change the fittings AT THE PLATE, instead of changing the lines I already have?

Been a while since I had the kit so I don't remember the specifics, but you will still have the 3an feed line to deal with and I don't think that they make the purge solenoid adapter in 3an.

I don't know how the 5.0's pumps are setup, but if your a worry wart like me you might want to look into an NX "SAFE" setup so that you don't have to worry about any lean spikes and can spray in race fuel while driving on 93.

I already have an NX nozzle kit, with 4an lines. I'm pretty sure I could just change the fittings AT the plate, and reuse everything else... including my 4an lines.

The fitting at the plate is where the jet goes, cant be changed. You will need a male 3an to 4an reducer coupler and a male/female 4an adapter with a port for the purge. Then you will also need a 12" nitrous line with a 4an female on one end and a 3an female on the other. If your not running a purge then the line from the bottle just attaches to the plate, 3an with jet there nothing else needed.

I just installed my NX plate system with purge and Im gonna post pics and tips in a new thread shortly.
