I am wondering if anyone here has used a Wilson Shear plate like the one pictured below. I am considering one for my Stage V hemi intake on my 572. Tim

They usually don't fit cast intakes without a lot of grinding.

I've dyno tested one 1.5 inch tall Wilson Manifold Dominator reversion spacer, it was worth 8 HP on a 700+ HP motor on pump gas I'd like to buy another one(cheap ) to run on my tunnel ram

I have a whole collection of shear plates including ones from RM, Holley and Wilson.

Are they mostly used to address reversion or to address fuel distribution / atomization?

I may be wrong but usually that means they are collecting dust. I also would like to get some input on weather they work or not on a 500 to 600hp motor.

I am wondering if that little bit of plenum volume is
the added power... if someone were to just add a plate
that same thickness with 4 holes would it give the
same results

I put 2" spacer on my M1 and yes it helped a bunch. I was wondering about reversion now.I leave off a Tranz brake so there might be nothing wrong there. Its wide open and the car leaves clean. I wonder whats going on at the shift points when the rpm drops.
