scoop location
is there a distance from the scoop opening to the center line of carb

Re: scoop location
Too many variables to list that will effect optimal placement .
Turbulence off the front of the car , height , shape of opening ,ect. In experimenting with my own car I found that the height over the carb has a far greater effect on carb performance . On most cars appearance wins out for placement . |
Re: scoop location
in that case Tom what is optimum height from top of carb what point on a triangle opening prostock scoop

Re: scoop location
I would not say there is an optimum height , but more a minimum .
I went from a low profile conventional scoop that was 3 1/2" above the air horn to a triangle shape that was 8" above the air horn. There was a substantial improvement in performance ,2 MPH and more even O2 sensor readings across the cylinders. I also feel having a radius on the entry to the carb is very important ,I try to use a 2" radius bell under the tray on all the scoops I mount. |
