so, I have been thinking (not always a good thing)
If an engine is basically an air pump, and the objective is to make it as close to 100 percent efficient, why is the exhaust valve so much smaller than the intake valve? Forget emmisions, forget fuel delivery, just want to understand why this is so...it is so on most engines... Rich |

I understand your intentions Rich ... Mine are the same.
Unfortunately I don't believe L-Jet can accomodate the needs of a 2056 with 48mm intake valves and a Webcam 86a up around 7k. L-Jet leans out in the higher RPMS (5k++). If it could accommodate those specs I would sell my carbs to get 48mm intake runners and a much larger throttle body to go with L-Jet instead of weber 44 IDFs. It just seems like if you're trying to push L-Jet that far into modern times, the cheaper and easier solution is to get a completely digital injection system that's programmable. In the end, you'll get more for your money and much more tunability. But I believe for a stock 2.0 it would be sufficient, nothing more. |
