IIRC, in a previous message, you mentioned that there were two general paths of intake design, one being low restriction to mass flow, and the other being tuned effect.  Mine is likely neither, so at least going to a short intake could buy me something.  At the moment, I'd be happy to get up to your non-EDDIE static rpm.  
 
Well, before you do that you should check with Bill Eslick (he's on the list), he started out with a very short manifold and later went to a longer one with more power.

Hey Paul.  You have an identical intake to mine.  Have you been able to do any full power runups?  With what prop?  What RPM?
 
Thanks,
Rusty (maybe NOS)
