Bill,
There is some one currently tuning a 2" intake - I think 16" may be a little
short.

        I measured much more carefully just now. (It isn't easy to measure length because the tubes are all tightly curved in three dimensions.) The primary runners are about 14 inches long and 1.18" ID.

        The secondary runners join together at the 12 inch mark and then join with the main intake at the 19 inch length. The secondary runners are approximately 1.18" ID (I can't get deep enough to measure exactly. The 7" long common duct for the secondary runners is a pair of ovals that measure 2.525" x 1.16".

        This may seem short, but keep in mind that the red lined is over 9000 RPM and the peak HP occurs at 8700 RPM.
