), where you get a good bounce. Often it takes a significant shot of power to arrest the next bounce, and it needs to be NOW.

If you = always operate=20 the throttle slowly, (like in an airplane) this is

Hi=20 Bill,

Your = description of the=20 problem is right on, and that's exactly how it worked when I had my 30" = long=20 intake with all the injectors at the end. The throttle response = was=20 horrid, as in dangerous.

IF you never had to operate the = throttle=20 quickly in a plane, it wouldn't be a problem, but there are times when = you need=20 quick response. One example would be on a botched landing (so I've = heard=20 <g>), where you get a good bounce. Often it takes = a=20 significant shot of power to arrest the next bounce, and it needs = to be=20 NOW. I only flew the long intake a few hours because it was just = that bad,=20 and any bounced landing would have ended up in damage to the = plane. =20

All that being said, it doesn't = mean the=20 injector has to be an inch from the engine either. I've had = intakes with=20 the injectors about 12 inches away, and they worked fine. =

Cheers,
