Jack,
Thanks, you confirmed what I thought I was reading.
Granted I understand fluid dynamics are tricky, tricky. So take my musings below with a grain of salt.
But, I live next to a PERFECT example of
fluid dynamics gone wrong. Plus being a firefighter and having a master plumber for a father I understand the "common sense" wet side pretty well.
The author of the article was referring to a single cylinder engine and, at first, I thought well that's totally wrong for our 8 cyl application. But then I thought I remembered that with a V8 only 2 cylinders are opening at once correct? So it's not really that much different? Except for a convoluted intake path, a filter media and unexplained holes in both the resonators and intake tube.
If I'm remembering correctly I believe you posited somewhere here that the holes might actually be to remove some of the "springyness."
I rounded the edges of my PVC with the Dremel and a file because it just seemed to make sense. Probably didn't make a difference but...
