You engine builders may have me at a disadvantage here, this is only a hobby for me. I do have a question for you, what do you think the difference is between the blower motors on page one?

How does runner size correlate between an injected and carbed motor? Can the runner size be smaller on an injected motor due to the fact that there is no fuel present, which takes up space? I know on carbbed alky motors runners and ports need to be huge to accomodate the large amount of fuel required. If smaller runners are used in a dry manifold it seems the ram effect can be maximized compared to using the same runner cross section as a carbbed motor. It is probably splitting hairs, but fun to talk about.

Kennywould you're on the wrong page. Wette Vette, It wasn't a cam change. As far as the runner size, my opinion, they should look like a funnel, and flow at least as much as the best port in the head. A stock Dart tunnel ram will only flow 354 cfm per runner. Whats the point in running a 390 cfm port,if you are going to hold it back with the manifold.
