SloRVette might pop in here and comment, BUT..
He told me when I wanted to do a 125 shot on my 350 that the danger of using a plate system on a SR is that the front cylinders tend to take more of the shot, and lean the back cylinders out because of the volume in the intake. If you tap and nozzle each intake runner, it's not a big deal, but also a lot more expensive than the plate system.

I am running a plate 150 shot myself on my 383 Super Ram.
I was told that was the max because after that the lean condition may occur.
So to go to a 2 stage 100 -200 set up I was thinking I would have to go direct port to the runners.
I also had my SR, runners, etc ported,polished, and chromed so maybe it will flow better.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance for your reply.

I have the same limit on the selenoids so my thought was to get biggers ones. but I am trashing that idea.
My motor was built with a 300 shot in mind so port injection is it.
I am also using a DFI fuel management system. Thinking od switching to F.A.S.T. system when I do the direct port.
Thanks again Pete!

FAST XFI with a dry port nitrous system would work well. Be easier to plumb that than a wet also.
I had problems when leaning on a tune with a Super Ram and a 5151 plate. The fuel distribution isn't real good.
