HI ALL I'M PLAYING WITH THE IDEA OF MAKING NEW STAINLESS CARB DRIP PLATES FOR THE 2 BARRELS IT WOULD BE ALMOST DUBBLE THE PRICE OF THE SINGLE BARREL PLATES THEY WOULD SELL FOR AROUND $20 AND I'M NOT SURE THAT THERE WOULD BE THAT MUCH INTREST IN THEM THE SMALLEST ORDER WOULD BE 50 PEICES + A ONE TIME SET UP FEE OF $700 TO MAKE THE DIE + THE PRICE OF EACH PLATE I'M THINKING IT IS TO MUCH I NEED SOME INPUT FROM YOU GUYS THEY WOULD BE MADE WITH SLOTTED HOLES FOR THE 4 BOLTS THAT WAY THEY WOULD FIT 35 AND UP ON IN TO THE 55AND 56 CARBS WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THERE A MARKET FOR THESE POST YOUR ANSWERS HERE
THANKS

    Paul-

    I don't think anyone else is currently producing these in quantity. Nice feature about the slotted holes-- certainly increases your market with the # of years that are applicable. I think it will take about 2 years to sell 50 sets.

    Why die-cut? Get them water or laser cut.

    The math dosent add up. If you sell 50 units at $20 each and you have an initial set up of
    $700 plus the cost of each unit it looks like you will take a loss on each unit you sell..
