kileface, altho you sound smart in your note you are very
very wrong air speed or volocity dose make a differance(faster air often means more air when cylinder fill times are so fast) and
the spliter before the carb in the intake on SLIDE TYPE carbs increases the speed of the air at partly open throttle
pos by reducing the diameter of the opening basiclly giving you two intake sizes, a company called
power now makes them for two stroke dirt bikes and i have felt the change before and after the throttle was way more crisp now were not talking about shoving more air in to the
cylinder like turbos and superchargers, all an engine has to
go on with out those devices is atmosphric pressure so the
key word is efficincy get as much air as you can while you
can but you will never get more than 7.2 pounds or what ever
atmosphiric pressure is i cant remember. if you still dont
beleive me why are the intakes on f1 cars length and size
changed with the amount of throttle given same with the mv agusta motorcycle there changing volocity and volume where and when thay need and dont tell me that tubulance dose not
make a differnce or are all those guys porting and POLISHING
cylinder heads wasting there time
