Hi=20 Lynn,
 
Thanks = for the=20 info.  I agree about the simplicity.  I'll end up making a = manifold=20 either way, and how much easier can it get than a single round tube = sticking out=20 of the housing?  If RB ever gets done with their aluminum front = side=20 housing, I'll want to go with both the front and rear, and those come = set up for=20 PP by default. 
 
Here's = the real=20 question- if you were going to take your best guess at PP timing that = would=20 result in a manageable engine, with good power at 7500 rpm, what would = it=20 be?  
 
Thanks,
