99% of the time a plate will meet your needs.
Carb orientation is basically irrelevant.

Can we assume you're running a 4bbl? It it oriented N-S or E-W? If the carb is mounted with the primaries toward the front of the car a nitrous plate under that carb is going to spray a lot of N2O and fuel on the outside wall of the plenum. |

For my '67 Valiant I'm running my 390 Holley's primaries toward the driver's side on an Offy manifold. The distribution appears to be pretty good oriented this way. When I had the carb this way on an unheated Clifford manifold the end cylinders were rich er than the middle cylinders. The next car is getting a Clifford manifold with a plenum divider and nitrous. I may try the primaries toward the passenger's side. I'll need a longer throttle cable, but this will rotate the Edelbrock carb so the fuel inlet is to the driver's side where the factory fuel lines end on this chassis. |
