I think it's more like a velocity thing. Like running a MR intake on LR heads.

Well cool i'll get started on the details when I get home. I'll speak with Dave in the meantime and let him know what's going on. We'll chat more when I get home and work everything out then. I gotta keep this one under wraps from the wife tho.. LOL.

Well, I can see that the low part of the port is not really doing alot, seeing that everyone moves the ports UP to make it a straighter shot into the chamber. BUT, I would think that keeping the head and intake port matched will keep the flow smoother? Less turbulent? If that is good? Better I think.

I'm no rocket scientist.........so all this technical crap is magic to me.

Well Carl, your in the same boat as alot of us are...Bad back and all...I still havent found a wife yet that would buy me hotrod parts for Christmas or birthdays? LOL...

These last few months, the only way I have survived was buy some parts at the right price and turning them over for a buck more than I paid....I should be going back to work in Feb...But thats not written in stone!!

I do remember the days of buying a part once a week until the project was done!! Those days are long gone!! And Now the wife and I are not only holding are household down..But also supporting are oldest daughter and a grandaughter too boot!!

I told both my wife and my daughter things had better change come spring!! I dont like living my golden years this way!! LOL..

When I was younger I thought I would have in my golden years screaming ladies and smell of buning rubber!! I just didnt know it would come from the Drag Strip!! LOL

Oh....that's BAD!!!!! LOL!! (but cute)

I bet my new g/f would buy me car parts in a heart beat! If that was what I wanted! She's pretty good about it, since she enjoys the "riding" part too!
