I have been debating the merits of blocking off the cross over tube in my TR4 intake manifold. I have read that the tubes create turbulance and should be blocked off. Reading it and practical applica

Joe, I'm not sure what could be gained from blocking it off. On my MGB, streetcar, when I ported and polished the manifold, I spent extra time cleaning the area around the crossover and down inside i

Without ever trying to figure out the reason why, I have heard that people who have tried blocking off this tube had problems. If I remember correctly, I believe that Kas warned against this in one o

Actually, you see them on a lot of cars. They don't really help flow much, especially coming in at a right angle as they often do. The moderate pulses in the intake system by creating a larger air vo

I did replace the balance tube with clear tubing and you could see the mixture pulsing back and forth. Interesting ,but of little value. Never Be beaten by Equipment Kas Kastner -- Original Message -

Damn. I washed Peyote prior to sticking it into the trailer and was running the motor to dry it off when I noticed the water pump inlet hose sucking flat. As I stood and stared at that I noticed the

Cambridge sells heavy duty motor mounts. They're larger in diameter than stock. I've got a set I've been running for a few years, and haven't broken them yet... These are for the TR-4. I don't know w
