Ernest,
    Come on out..........Only about 111 F in the shade today !!...........<:)...........
You may not be able to completely rid the fuel pooling in your gator-aid size
plenum until the secondary injectors are inside the runnersbut aiming them
toward the runners should help a lot...............

Hold onto it for now, Kelly.  My goal right now is to get a reliable system with the least amount of work, even if it is not the optimum one.  My project is wanting to be an airplane really bad.

I don't think my intake is the best it could be, but the EGTs are close to being equal, and I will see soon if I'm making sufficient power for flight.  (now that I've about finished the priming and sanding.)  If I cure the pooling of fuel in the bottom of the intake, I'll call it good enough.  I think the easiest path to that point may be to turn the secondary injectors around to spray into the outer intake runners.  Once I'm flying, I can turn my attention to optimizing an intake, and at that point the flange off a 6-port lower manifold will be useful; but, at that point I'll be able to fly out and pick it up from you personally 8*)
