No, you don't need another plate, just need to redo your jetting and maybe timing.

What jets do you have available?

Yes, if you change your jetting it should change your AFR.

No, I don't have a jet chart for your plate. Without flow testing it we have to guess at it, but our guess will certainly be an improvement over what the manufacturer supplied 8 years ago. I think the plate you have is probably similar to the Holley Big Shot plate, they do have a jet chart that should put you in the ball park. I don't know if edelbrock has updated their jetting charts or not, but Holley did a few years ago. Most likely you will need at the minimum a 10 jet stagger (bigger nitrous than fuel), and on most plates the bigger the jet the more stagger you'll need. For example, reversing the jets you have now 94 N/76 F would be a 18 jet stagger, probably not far off. But you may want to try a smaller shot first, like 80 nitrous or so? Depends on what jets you have available to work with.
