Glad to hear the discussion. Since I bought Ernest’s project I realize that he used the most up to date technology at the time of his build………..but things may have changed significantly in the last 10 or 12 years so I am planning on the new engine from square 1…………..the older 13B will be fun in my boat!

Right Charlie, those were the short runners used for the SUN 100 race. You could feel the engine come 'on the pipe' around 7400 Rpm which is where I ran it for the race. All other times I use the longer pipes with a lower peak HP rpm. Tracy

It's not that hard to make an intake that will make great power. Look at
Tracy's setup. Might not be aesthetically beautiful to some eyes, but to
me, function is beauty. I don't know of any N/A 2 rotor that's as fast
as his -4, or as efficient at lower speeds. And really simple to make.

Hope Tracy doesn't mind; here's a shot of the Renesis manifold. I believe that the tubes inside the 'box' were later extended to be near the opposite wall. IIRC, Tracy said that the tubes are ~11" from the face of the block to the end of the bellmouth.
You can see old versions of the RWS website by using the Wayback Machine & picking a date.
