Either setup would at least help keep pressures the same across the bank.

Reminds me of an old Bill Cosby album I had years ago called "200 miles per hour", where he describes his friend Carrol Shelby and the car he bought from him.

As for the pic it's just from a 3d program and a quick rendering. Here is one with different materials and a slightly different angle. Once you build the model the rest is simple.
sorry for showing off

if you were thinking that it would have some ram air effect...I'm pretty sure the air would be to dirty (turbulent ) at the position you have it...
if you look at most modern sportbikes the ram air intake is at the nose of the bike cleanest air and highest pressure.

Anyone ever see the Gold Wings with the spider manifolds and single carb that comes up thru the tank? They are pretty cool. I saw one with long stacks. Looked like it would suck your face right off. :ohmy: :huh: :blink: :laugh:

how about modifying stock airbox so it draws in more low pressure air like cowl inductionI think youve just "re-designed" the airbox...with a different opening...you might need a jetting change....probably not much more than a pilot...

Still recovering,some days are better than others.

Filters are only 1.75 tall but 6.25 x 4" wide and should all fit neatly behind the carbs. They look like volkswagen dual carb filters. I even left a little wiggle room to get them on and off. Gonna machine these later this week and carbs should be back from WG soon so I hope this works.
