45’s Good Idea or what,

Because people are more bothered about peak power figures than the
area under curves and a wide spread of power and torque. Torque isn't
sexy.

Right I understand now thanks guys, it's a bit confusing reading stuff in here when you've only half an idea and are learning (people tend to assume you know it all ).

I'll be off to sell my twin 40's now...

 

i always thought the power just came from the increased flow? more air/fuel = more power?

my k-jet vs carbs tech illustration

red=air flow.

flames = combustion.

see?

 

Jet engines all round it is then.

 

in - bang - out

none of this,air box and piping and twisty manifolds n poo

im in a silly mood.

 

That's a Scrapheap challange drawing mate ,

chrismc's team will be going with the illustration on the left and rileys team will be going with the one on the right.

 

lol, i love that sketch

 

The one on the left is K-Jet & Carbs on teh right if im not mistaken

 

as they are on very lumpy cams which k-jet isn't great at

 

Very true the low manifold vaccum created by high overlap cams doesn't lift the airflow flap well, or smoothly.

 

Yep, ITB`s and an ecu with Alpha-n tuning is probably the best way to go with a wildly cammed valver.
