Default Shark nozzle in EGR block off plate

I was wondering if any has tried putting a shark nozzle in the EGR block off plate. Ive been reading and so far the answer seems to be place it as far away from the throttle body as possible so it can mix well but would it make that much of a difference? This is for a wet kit.

I was gonna try it but the Shark Nozzle wasn't long enough to clear the inside of the intake with the soft plug I used to block off my EGR. The throttle body thing is more for F body intakes or fast 90's our truck intakes are just a hollow tube all the way to the end so there isn't as much of a possiblilty of over shooting the first two cylinders.

Mine seem to stick out pretty far in intake. Im going to give it a try and see how it works. Heres a pic for reference on how far mine sticks out.

Well when I first started out with nitrous, I had a throttle body spacer tapped with a power wing nozzle. Was running a 150 shot and it never felt right just pulled hard then sorta sputtered. Year goes by My tuner notices the ghetto *** **** I had lol. My tuner explained to me that he had tried this before and that the nitrous being sprayed from a nozzle this close to the intake ports would actually miss the first 2 cylinders intake ports or would puddle and run like crap. Just stating my experiance for ya, I ended up getting a N2o outlet plate and it made a hell of a difference.

I appreciate the input and this isn't a permanent thing I'm just trying to get my nitrous running for today so I can run it at the track. I'm not sure how it could miss the first 2 cylinders tho, looking inside the intake everything gets sucked into a hole in the very back of the intake then goes to cylinders so having it that far shouldn't bypass the first 2, at least IMO. The only thing that concerns me is it mixing well in such a short distance.

Not trying to reinvent anything I just needed a temp setup so I could test my nitrous at the track and didn't want to drill a hole in the intake tube for something that's not going to be there for very long.

When you look into the intake thru the throttle opening, look up to the top of the tube running thru the manifold. You'll see that not all the air has to travel to the back of the intake first.
