DAW Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I have both a balanced-tube manifold (Cannon) and a non balanced-tube manifold (Lynx) that I can use and wonder what the experience is with the two types... I can postulate; but I'd like to hear from someone who has actually compared the two types and what they found re tuneability, performance/driveability, etc? I think this is a different topic from tuning triple carbs, per se, so I posted it as a separate topic... DAW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAW Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 No one? Surely someone out there has tried the two different style intake manifolds and has an impression...? DAW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAW Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 OK, my search was lame, I found some discussion. I wonder if it makes any sense to balance cyls 1&6, 2&5, and 3&4 in pairs re firing intervals, or to just group all 6 together? DAW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAW Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 OK, I understand that synchronization is clearly more accurate with individual (non-balanced) runners, and that power band would be less peaky and driveability better with balanced triples...what I'm questioning is the optimal way to balance the carbs... does runner-grouping matter?

Tony D Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 do it, dyno it, and post the results, then there will be no conjecture or supposition... I could group my Mikuini Manifold through the ports and using tubing. I doubt any measurable difference will result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
