  Does anyone (Dave) know the reason or theory for the small air intake size
on Nish's liner?
At least it seems that way to me. The intake appeared to be only about 2
inches in dia. at Speed Week, and seemed to be changable. I meant to take a
picture of it but forgot ( old timers disease). Picture on Steve Pitt's site
no. 17 shows it is small. Possible venturi cooling effect offering more power
than than slight restriction would lose? Anyone point me towards research
sites?  Inquiring minds want to know.
