Thanks David and Ed for the
comments.
I believe I have a pretty good understanding
of the MAP variables, and the conclusion continues to be that my intake runners,
and TB are too small for best WOT "MAP", though that's not necessarily a bad
thing.
I guess the important thing for me to keep
in mind is that improving the MAP, may not improve the power. It's
entirely possible that my smaller runners, and subsequent higher
velocities are giving me more power than I'd get with bigger
runners. I certainly can't deny that I'm making significantly
more power than in any previous NA configuration. I would expect that
I'm matching, or slightly exceeding Tracy's 13B static, and climb power in my
current configuration. He had a good pressure recovery scoop on the 13B,
so it remains to be seen whether I can match his power at speed.
Bottom line is that I'm happy with the
current power that's being produced, and any improvement beyond this point would
require a huge investment in time, and effort. At the moment, I have far
bigger problems, like adding enough oil cooling to make up for this extra
power. At least the current cooler isn't leaking (yet).
Thanks,
Rusty (working on re-installing the series
EWP)
