Brent,

I was just doing a little research because you mentioned that a single plane intake manifold with a 4 barrel would produce more peak HP at higher rpms. I agree with you on that, from what I have read. The problem is, that because single plane intake manifolds were not in use in the 1960's on race cobras, I cannot use one in vintage racing. I can only use the style of manifold that would have been in use then. Seems like an inconsistent rule, given that I can run roller rockers and those weren't is use then either, but I don't make the rules.

Again, thanks for your thoughts and input, they are always greatly appreciated.

Jim
