The BMW is interesting. Couldn't hurt, I suppose. But not sure what the value might be. Minimal, at best, I would think. Talking about top end, of course.

I have seen side draft carbs with an enclosed plenum and cold air ducting. Doesn't work on our cars, not enough room.

I'm not sure there's a lot of value to my idea, either. I'd like to build it, then take it to the track and see what happens to the top end. Maybe drive it on the street and see if there's a change in fuel mileage.
