[@MakingforMotorsport]

More modelling and more science… 2 things I can definitely do 👍

[@DrewLSsix]

2:00 this little fact gave me an idea for a simple variable intake system that I haven't been able to test even after all these years. If the sharp inlet effectively narrows the inlet cross section, then it makes sense that you could use this effect to tune the physical runners to act like narrower and proportionally longer runners for lower rpm torque bias. Mechanically I'm thinking either a sleeve that can slide above the trumpet to disrupt the flow, or slide down exposing ports below the trumpet that allow some aor to bypass the main inlet. A much simpler mechanism might be a solenoid powered valve that allows air to enter the runner below the inlet, thus disrupting the flow and effectively reducing the runner cross section.

[@enigmazesenveertig]

Hell yeah more modeling ! thanks for sharing your knowledgde

[@MakingforMotorsport]

Hell yeah! 👍

[@trebushett2079]

Good tutorial. One major thing missing though. For carburettors and single runner (especially parallel) tracts, you can't just make the trumpet as long as you would like. The fuel spray tube must be situated anywhere in the 'first third' distance of the inlet tract, as measured from the air entry end. If the spray tube is positioned half (way) to three quarters down the tract, it will then reside in a higher pressure region, severely affecting the amount of fuel being drawn off the spray tube/main jet. This badly affects acceleration carburetion and can at the very least manifest as a flat-spot which takes some time to accelerate through, and at worst, a massive flat-spot situation which the engine just can't pass through, hence severely limiting the rev capability of the engine. Fuel injected engines don't suffer any of these negative effects. All these effects are easy to test/simulate using an engine dynamometer equipped with some very basic test equipment. experto crede.

[@MakingforMotorsport]

Fair enough… I can’t claim to know anything about the dark arts of carburation so this is great knowledge!

[@davidgrimes2745]

Tre Bushett, what would define the entire inlet tract? If one end is the air entry end is the other the intake valve itself? I ask as someone who runs a single carburetor and is looking at adding a velocity stack. The intake manifold after the carburetor is quite long though.

[@joshrandall3632]

[@them0leisback]

I absolutely love it. 3D modeling and optimizing of intake parts is a really low cost tuning factor. I always wonder why there are not more people doing it. Some time ago I designed an intake out of TPU with internal helical flaps for my carbureted bike and it massively improved the throttle response especially in mid range. My bike buddy, who is obsessed with everything being stock, shiny and perfect, was shocked when I told him I installed a 3D printed part on my engine😂. He was trying to convince me it's unsafe. But I just laughed because he has no clue how strong TPU actually is...

[@MakingforMotorsport]

There’s a lot of mistrust around 3D printed parts and whilst FDM and PLA isn’t good for everything but you can still do alot with good filament and clever design 👍. I like the sound of these helical flaps! How did they work?

[@joshrandall3632]

Equally interested.

[@them0leisback]

The TPU intake sits in between the carb and the airbox. Since its a 620cc 4 valve single cylinder engine with low rotational mass, it is very responsive to small changes in AFR. Now my plan was to get the intake air to rotate around its direction of travel before it passes the carburetor, to unify and improve the mixture. There are three helical flaps with variable pitch inside, connected in the center. They start with a low pitch (almost parallel to the direction of travel) at the airbox and 80mm down right infront of the carb they are at an angle of around 25 degress in relation to the flow direction.

[@MakingforMotorsport]

@@them0leisback wow, so you were introducing a “spiral” in the air as it went down the runner to introduce controlled “turbulence” to keep the mixture homogenous? I like the sound of it…. As you say, a small engine will show up any differences quickly so it was a obviously an improvement… If I am getting it right, these are static? Like not an actively controlled part?

[@ewanmcdougall6390]

nice to see another vauxhall 8v on bike bodies! not that anyone ever wants my 2p but you'll get it anyway. - a tapered tube flows better than a parallel tube. - you'll need your inlet way longer for pulse tuning. - the biggest improvement you could have made for power is get rid of the air filter and keep the original velocity stacks - if you want a filter make an air box with cold air feed any loss of flow through a filter will be gained by denser air. - you wont have enough room under the bonnet for both pulse tuning and an air box and the cold air would be more beneficial than any pulse tuning. - make them twice as long with a1.5deg taper and poking out trough the bonnet with an air box/scoop out the top of the bonnet and no filter.

[@MakingforMotorsport]

You make some good points, but like I said in the video, in my level of application all the evidence I have found is people not finding a different between taper and parallel (maybe on a full race engine with a taper all the way to the back of the valve - but I am not there), the bell on the stack was far more important to me… After having my engine swallow a small stone (very open engine bay) I will always run filters - they may not help power but neither does running on 3! 😂 I ran the numbers on pulse tuning for 3k rpm and just gave up trying to fit it in, do-able but worth the effort? I doubt it… More cold air helps definitely, but I rarely see IATs much more than 5deg over ambient ‘cus it’s a space frame front end, plus packaging constraints mean it’s gonna be difficult to fit a plenum and ducting to give cold air…. On a more “normal” road car I’d agree with, and implement most of them, but this project has some challenges 👍😂

[@TheShift1313]

Very cool video. There is so much to unpack in this topic so ill look for your vid on that. One thing you might consider trying is putting a blade at the bell mouth area. I use them on itbs and carbs and they help point the flow in the right direction. Another thing to consider for those doing this in a plenum. Make sure they extend into the air volume. Air sticks to walls and you get better flow if you roll the lip around and its away from walls.

Years ago there was a cheap and simple mod for the BMW R1100RT motorcycle and that was to fit the inlet trumpets from the R1100GS, these were much longer and were in fact velocity stacks. Net result of the change was noticeably more low end torque, just where you want it. Allegedly, you lost top end power, but that was of no consequence, so a good win and well worth the effort (so was a remap, but that's another story all together). By the way, Porsche fitted engine controlled, adjustable length, velocity stack to some of its flat six engines, that’s got to be the best win

Looking forward to the science video. Velocity stacks for me are just that they increase the Velocity of the air to increase turbulence around the throttle butterfly to aid mixing fuel I also read an article years ago about exhaust design for aircraft engines. That was really interesting and more relevant to the pluse tuning

[@MakingforMotorsport]

Yeah, the pulse tuning you are referring to in Exhausts occurs in a similar method in inlets… I am just trying to gather as much information so the video is as accurate and complete as possible…

[@HDSME]

The conanda effect makes air follw any curve so if you blow air on your table with hair dryer and it edge is rounded the air will flow down! So on a V stack that curve grabs alot more air and smoothly !

I have decided to build a new induction system that follows the problem solving methods that Yamaha followed to gain an extra 80HP from the standard Ford Taurus V6 engine. The Taurus was sent to Yamaha to get the engine performance increased, which they did in part by building an intake indicator system with two runners per head inlet!

Great job!I also make ITBs for my motor and would like to watch a video with the calculation of the length of the trumpets.Have you ever thought about bringing trumpets into an airbox? A separate filter for each trumpet greatly reduces air consumption! In addition, the airbox allows you to supply cold air and install a factory filter! On the BMW M series, this is done from the factory .....)

[@MakingforMotorsport]

Yeah, OEMs have lot of reasons for the airboxes…. on a lot of cars with ITBs as standard they tend to use Air Flow Meters for the fueling so they still need to route the air though… plus OEMs need a place to feedback block breather air etc to meet regs…. That said, it’s still much easier to route a cold feed to an air box rather than 4 ITBs!

[@ЗлойБродяга-н9н]

@@MakingforMotorsport By the way ... on Toyota 4a-ge, the trumpets are bent, so that you can get the required intake length!)

[@ArneChristianRosenfeldt]

@@MakingforMotorsport Your velocity stacks just beg to touch each other in a common plate. So you are almost there with your airbox. Also you could add 3% bend or angle to make the air box more compact. An airfilter is most effective with a constant flow of high density air. Thus the intake air goes straight to the airlifter (ram in orthogonal onto it -- a flat filter is best for this). Also a filter is basically a 2d sheet / net with pores which hold back particles which are too large for the clearances in the engine. You fold it until it fits into the engine bay. It is by no means a 3d foam where you need to be lucky that some particles stick on the oily surface. Just look up how the tubes in a particle filter are closed. On a cat the pores are small enough that the very hot and turbulent gas can carry the molecules via diffusion to the walls. A cat is not a filter.

[@salamandershackbuilder1032]

You use taper to stabilize the airflow for the nozzles. You create a homogeneous hot spot for the nozzles where there are no differences in speed over the revrange used. That is, if you take a cross-section at right angles to the airflow above the main jet, there is little to no flow differences to be recognized over the entire revrange used. This makes tuning much more predictable and eliminates a variable. You do have this with a straight pipe because the wall always pulls on the airflow and makes the homogeneous cross section unpredictable.
