Yes, the itbs... also where are we supposed to fit 18in of intake runners. If you cant hit the first harmonic pulse aim for the second, right?

Hmm
I may have missed where a 14 inch intake runner was introduced but I certainly do not agree with that.



However, I can agree with this above picture from the early 80's. L20B four cylinder with 50mm Solex carbs, 14.2:1 compression ratio with a 9200 RPM limit. The L20B FIA head does not flow as much air as the SR series head is capable of. Kinsler, in fact, recommended the 50mm as the bare minimum for a high performance SR engine in the conversations he shared with my Dad. (This was talking about the 54C head after I sent pictures to Mr. Kinsler to pique his brain) To add to the confusion, my Dad did not have the benefit of a cross-flow head that we all do now.

Now, I understand I don't have money to build any of these fancy things but a page taken from the past can help learn from either mistakes or triumphs.

But, once again, what do I know? I don't own a fancy engine so how credible am I really?

EDIT: I am just presenting information. That is all.

Mr dudeman is saying anything under 15in is wrong.... if you read in his post above. I thought it said 1.5ft that's where I got the 18in. He actually said 1.25...

I don't even know how I missed comprehension of that. Thank you, @cory.

Lol now its your engine theory that you've discovered. .. alrighty. And was it your brilliance that also realized and increase in volumetric efficiency will equal an increase in power.

Ooo, we just got mean. That actually took longer then I expected. Still a bummer though.

And no, not "my" theory, the chief engineer for Honda f1 and Indy racing engines for 15yrs..sorry to offend you.
