Ok guys, I was just sitting here thinking about how to open up the lower intake more and it hit me...... now PLEASE don't call me stupid cause it was only a thought.
Everywhere I have read about mods to it, usually involves raising the roof up higher........
But what about lowering the floor so it sits further into the cam well so to speak..... we're not running a balancer shaft in there so we can drop the floor at least a couple of inches keeping the angle from the heads going down so we don't interfere with the push rods and the oil flow... the only thing we'd need to do is some type of material on the bottom to try to keep the hot oil form affecting the intake temps too much........
I know... maybe stupid idea, but heck... someone has had to try it haven't they?
I've got a spare lower intake if someone wants to try to fab something up LOL!
Also, this is just a rough idea as I know we still have to work out how to flow into the heads themselves better.
