My GT6, running twin SUs, has this very nice pair of aluminum air horns/stacks. I've been running them open, but am concerned about the amount of grit in a typical track environment. They end about 1

Hi Scott! When we were at VIR we ran into the same problem and found some great mesh muffs with elastic collars at the nearby Victory Cycle dealer. They were for their carbs and fit our air rams perf

I'm a fan of itg air filters. They are a triple layer foam filter designed for high flow with minimal air disruption. They are the best filter I have found for a minimal space in front of the air hor

Thanks TeriAnn, for a very imformed reply. Even though I will run a Spitfire w/ dual Weber DCOE40s, there's something to be learned from every discussion thread! Steven Groh ex-Manning Spitfire

Scott brings up a subject I am wrestling with at the moment. Most serious racers teardown to refresh the engine every X number of races, usually when a leakdown test shows it's time. I have been doin

Just a guess, but you'll probably never see an effect. Not because it isn't significant, but because racing engines don't run enough. The CRC was one of the longest track time events I know of other

We didn't used to run one on Susan's spitfire until we ran VIR a few years ago. VIR has pea gravel all over the paddock. What was happenign with Susan's car was she would start it up and head out on

I did not run air filters all last year (I was trying out the new air horns) and noticed a couple of things that had not happened previouosly. I had some intake valve resession. The abrasive intake a

No surprise there--I'd probably run at least a screen unless the carb air intake area was boxed. One of the fabrication things I want to do is to separate the intake air from the general engine compa

I, too, am a fan of ITG filters. TWM used to be a dealer, I'm not sure how much attention they pay these days. mjb turned me on to them. He used to stock and resell the whole line, but I don't know i

It can be very tricky. Peyote has an advantage in the Knobbly Lister type pop-up in the middle of the hood--there's likely a high pressure area in front of it, but finding high pressure areas (not al

Ah yes, free horsepower from ram air. This is a favorite subject of mine. Lots of experiments and study of the effect. The prime thing I found was that cooler air, near the roadway, was a better give
