It would be interesting to see, it works for motorbikes. I believe SUs don't like working to one cylinder as they don't like the pulsating flow.

We do seem to have wandered from heated manifolds to manifolds in general! Still its all related. I have been on the internet reading some of Vizards tests on the airflow through manifolds; that is interesting. Must buy the book.

Indeed - it's a v good book. I do remember some lads in Hawick fitted 4 X Amal carbs directly into stubs brazed into the front of a standard Mini cylinder head - their big problem was keeping it all water tight...........
