haa fred what advantage is the straight intake over the curved/ie stock angled intakehp or???... especially on the smaller v-rude tripple....
Looking at the previous photos there's 2 version of the twin barrel front half
a straight and a slightly angled one with the shift shaft cross shaft?
I also wonder how a custom straight in using the original 1 1/2 single barrel carbs and suitable reeds would work?
the reed block is the limiting Factor, the bigger or more reeds you have, the more volume you can flow, more volume = more thermo energy = more power.
air don't like to turn, it will over run the turn and slow down.
now that i'm at this point, i'll build the Straight In Power head and put it on the Stinger mid. the factory never offered said unit, only the 19s power head had a
FT model.
only scorched one set of piston to get this far. need a set of +.060 :eek:
would have to say no issue with air speed, lookin from hear.

How do you think a straight in with the original 1 1\2 75hp carbs would work?
think low end would be killer, maybe, but thats all i would think.:cool:
thanks 75man,:cool:
I would have thought you would get a better top end due to less restiction?
For Powerabout et. al.
Is this what you were thinking of?
Tim
exactly....
Are they std 75 carbs?
How did that configuration perform?
Many thanks for the photo
I think BRF needs to start a 'hall of fame' for your creations
