well to start with, unless the first quote is out of context, it's simply wrong. Shorter primaries emphasize high RPM power, because the negative sonic pressure wave arrives at the exhaust valve soon

Yet one more reason for wanting a dyno at home. :) But, the variables involved are pretty fascinating, and the science of it is one where failing to account for all the variables can lead to quite un

An interesting aside to this discussion is the development of the last piston engined fighter aircraft at the end of WW2. All of them, no matter what nation, had short, separate, exhaust stacks for e

I would think that a short pipe is the ideal combination of weight and Those engines in fighters and bombers had compressors to give the plane more flight altitude. With a compressor the ram effect o

And, you're absolutely right, Terry. And, further, most aircraft engines, at least the WWII variety, had short pipes because of weight (a primary concern for aircraft), and not for additional thrust,

Maybe this is a numbers game about "most". But for sure the Boeing B-17s, B-29s, Consolidated B-24s and a number of other bombers were all turbo-supercharged radials with, of necessity, exhaust manif

Bill, I beg to disagree. Super/turbo/super-turbocharging on military aircraft was to help them operate at their ceilings. There is not a lot of air at 35,000 feet and even with boost, they never perf

Yeah, quite true. But, the Merlin engines, at least, were operating with a helluva lot of boost. Earlier versions of the Merlin were rated at 60" Hg above atmospheric. When they wanted more power lat
