That's the prevailing legend, it's fine out of the box. Or, you can tune it as is, then cut it and see if it does anything. You can also accomplish the same thing with spacer(s).

Yes, that is correct. Take a look at the Edelbrock 7163, which is a current dual plane Rectangle Port BBC intake, (although I don't know if they make one with a Dominator flange). It has the plenum divider cut down on it, I believe all of the Performer RPM manifolds do. And you know they did a ton of testing to determine that was a worthwhile modification, otherwise they wouldn't spend the money to machine them that way. A lot of the old race engine shops used to do that mod for guys, before you could buy them that way.

LOL No, It's going on my car as we speak, I really appreciate all the reviews plus a lot I gathered. I'll let you know after Bakersfield how it works. Some said it idles very smooth and more consistent. |

That is very surprising and impressive. https://postimg.cc/gallery/np3zpruo/"Dunning-Kruger Effect" -a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge. Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue. 4X NE2 CHAMPION. 2020 TDRA NE2 Champion |
