If you
look at Ed's graphs, a port to port length of about 33" would be a good target
if you are going to include the EDDIE dyanmic chamber... Will you, or are you
only going for velocity/flow tuning?
I
though about using hose for tuning tests too, but discarded the idea because of
what I thought would be high internal friction. I hope you make it
work..It has to be a good way to get the length right.

What will be the length of the runners &
manifold?
TJ
The manifold is 4
inches long, and the runners will be as long as they need to be, or as
long as will fit in the space available. I guess that's another way to
say I don't know. I haven't attempted any calculations, but from what Ed
has mentioned in the past, I'm thinking I'll be looking at something in the
range of 12-15 inches. The idea is that I can connect the two parts
with rubber hose of various lengths to try to get some idea
of where the tuning point needs to be. Unfortunately, this can't
all be done on the ground, because I'll want the tuned rpm to be above
static. The other problem is that my ideal tuned range will change when
I get the -C
drive.
I didn't hear anyone
laughing at the idea, so I'm ordering all the stuff. Wish me luck.
Cheers,
