question
Hi, i have this slider and a Surui tripod. Could you tell me which plate can i use for mounting the Magic Carpet on my tripod? Thanks.
If by plate you mean the two sets of rails that come in Kit, you can use either set of on a tripod. Simply attach the tripods quick release plate to the middle screw hole. Do be cognoscente that you need a robust tripod if you have a heavy camera and video head particularly if you use the 5.2' rail set. Otherwise you may fall over.

question
How can I choose the right tripod to use with the magic carpet?
I would say most shooters will use two tripods without heads and screw directly into the 3/8'-16th holes on the slider bottom. Light stands could also be use with an adapter. This one is the quality I would suggest. Kupo Baby Ball Head Adapter B&H # KUKG014212.

Can you expand the length on the regular Magic Carpet? I know you can on the Pro, but I want to know if you can on this model.
No, unfortunately, the Syrp Magic Carpet 3.3' Medium Track with Carriage and End Caps Kit cannot be extended like the Syrp Magic Carpet PRO Short Slider Kit with Extension (60"). It is possible to swap the track to something longer by opting for the Syrp Magic Carpet Long Track (5.2'). See the link below:

hello, does the end caps have 3/8" holes centred below or other size holes to mount them on a tripod ?
The Syrp Magic carpet slider has 1/4 20 and 3/8 connections on the slider rail that would allow you to attach tripods as support like in this image - https://bit.ly/3sLB0BP
