So, just to reiterate-full radius stacks, raised off of the "floor" of the manifold actually produce more power, despite the smoother (looking) transition of the stacks that are level with the floor.....
Yes, the ones planted in the floor do a bad job managing the air that doesnt make it into the stack put is pulled down.

I'll say it will give best power under the curve in respect to HP and TQ but not peak HP numbers.

I can't wait to see these results! You are the man! I really want to see an under dog win for some reason.

If you want to sell some of these after the test send me a PM.

BTW Paul, I hope you're not busy for about a month! Holy crap man!

After this, there should be a no BS excuse to anyone putting the "what makes the most power" in the manifold arena.

Yes, yes, different combinations, but you know what I mean.

Good luck, bro!

Which one makes the most power??


I kid, I kid...


You're going to be an expert at intake manifold swaps. You're going to get burned out half way through...

Yeah the sad part is the best option is no intake manifold what so ever in the traditional sense and just 4 seperate charge pipes going from the IC or somewhere soon after the IC directly to the runners, seperating the air between the runners properly is a PITA. CFD is no fun.
