[QUOTE="Jaybird, post: 682133, member: 22283"] The key is intake oriface. As long as the cubic inches of the reciever (air box) isn't made less than the total of the intake, it hinders not. We could have a box 2 meters square and it cannot provide the motor with more air than the intake orifaces can generate. Now, like an air recieving tank, the volume of air inside the box will still provide the engine with air even if the intakes are sudddenly clogged....but the volume that the box can hold will be eaten up in about three revolutions of the motor. On the other hand, if the area in the box is less than the intake area, we starve the motor. (imagine a 10mm pipe feeding air to the engine, there could be ten 10mm pipes coming into the feed pipe, but the feed is restricted to the 10mm pipe at intake. David, intermittant stroke only puts things on hold until next cycle. Theory still applies. The key for air intake is to have as much intake area as the carb bore can produce. The carb bore is the final dictating restriction. [/QUOTE]
