New this year! In 2012, IKF is introducing a new FLAT restrictor plate for the Jr 1 flathead (.440 dia.) and Jr 2 (.530 dia.). Many local engine builders are just receiving those and we do not have sufficient test data to make the switch mandatory at this time. Thunderlake will use the old style restrictor until further notice. The new restrictor will be replacing the current restrictor at some point and any competitor may use this at any time. Please consult with your current engine builder for clarification and guidance.
