That wouldn't work. My heads are neither 35mm, nor round, at that interface. We're not going to get crazy on the housings csa, but we will knock the injector boss way down, and enlarge the entry. Kevin's mono runner is a cool looking piece, and flows very well, but I'm not going that far.

I think it has more to do with my valves, chamber, and short side radius, rather than any particular turbulence in Kevin's port. His heads flow very well.

Where's the choke point? Is it throttle body or plenum volume?

2 38mm balls fall all the way down into the heads.

TB is 2 64 mm blades plus over sized primary.
