1996 Cummins with fuel plate acceleration test

[CR85Xx]

could you just take the whole fuel plate out? would it hurt anything?

[MrJakediesel]

did she through any more smoke when u set it forward??

[mygiant69]

What Clutch did you go with? I have been looking at changin my 97's plate.. and get 75 HP ATS injectors.. I have a 4 inch Straight pipe and I don't remember the intake but it breaths very well.. I was curious of a good clutch that isn't to stiff and is not bad to drive..

[linkthemain]

big difference with the fuel plate

[kcole939]

Looks like about 11 seconds to 60, and not even jamming through the gears. Pretty damn good for a truck.

[SockBilly]

did the plate make your truck smoke more?

[ImAMindlessOne]

@SockBilly not really it could but its a small plate like a 12 or 10 have a 100 in right now it was a way better choice to go with

[SockBilly]

@ImAMindlessOne oh thats cool whats the web site you got the 100 in it right now from and how much power did you get out of it and did it make it smoke more?

[454sskilla]

hey can someone tell me what kind of fuel plate i need for my 12v cummins

[anoonan27]

i got the same truck. u redo ur tranny before putting the fuel plate in

[ImAMindlessOne]

@anoonan27 nope no need to its a 5 spd its got aftermarket clutch in it, but as far as the trans its stock and has a larger input shaft, and besides i've heard they can handle about 900 hp

[anoonan27]

@ImAMindlessOne and what speed does ur truck top at now. mine only does 85 w/o the plate

[ImAMindlessOne]

@anoonan27 it tops out at 100 mph with stock plate and the aftermarket one the only difference is with the aftermarket plate has a lot more pull at 100 and wants to go faster the factory could barely make it. it would go faster if I could go beyond 3k in fifth gear

[1996cumminspower]

@ImAMindlessOne ya you should be good to 900 i wouldn't touch much more than that if you were planning on it though

[dodgekindaguy]

Fuel plate makes it fuel harder I pulled mine out so I have no fuel plate try it out u thought a #100 is bad try none lol

[foxreed22]

you took it out? did it have more power then a 140hp fuelplate?

[fsjfanatic]

adds more fuel in the p pump more fuel more hp an torque

[SockBilly]

how doas a fuel plate work?

[TheTerminator310]

No matter how many mile's you put on a Cummins, it won't wear out.

[1996cumminspower]

@TheTerminator310 197k on mine and runs like a raped ape. no problems yet. the clutch is going bad but i only use it going into reverse or starting out so it should last a little while longer

[TheTerminator310]

@1996cumminspower Yeah, my Dad had a 2005 Dodge Cummins, common-rail, 24V, 6 speed manual (sold it) and even at 220k miles it still tore the pavement up whenever you layed into it. It was a great truck.
