P.S to Rusty. You said a good street port would develop about the same
power as a good p port at our rpms. Sorry but this is simply not true.
Hi
Jerry,
What I
actually said was (pasted directly from my previous
message):
"There's also considerable doubt whether a good PP engine can
actually out produce a good side port (ported REW housings) engine in the rpm's
we're running. I'd be willing to bet that the side port will be
more civilized across the rpm range
too."
As you may recall,
I was all fired up to do a PP for the single rotor project, mostly because the
intake would be a single tube, and simple to make. The more I looked into
it, the more I came to believe that there was no real advantage to PP at the
RPM's we're running. I now have new REW housings in the garage, which will
become the single rotor engine.
I'll be happy to
see you prove me wrong, and I REALLY DO mean that! Now that I have
the Sonerai, I'll be needing another single rotor at some point, and I'm still
interested in PP. How long do you figure it will be before you
get your current engine
running?
Cheers,
Rusty (just
keeping the conversation lively)
