You know I really dont think there is any swirling going on in the chamber.Remember when Wistech had one bad injector how only one pipe of two was glowing red on his exhaust same side?I couldnt believe that would happen but it did.This throttlebody experiment could be really interesting.
Well, this has been eating at me since you posted it. so I have a few questions swirling in my head now
How well are the injectors matched? They are controled as one, correct? Only one flow rate setting on the D&M.
seems to me if the automotive injectors come in a set of 4,6or 8, they would be a matched set? Is there any way we can assume Cannondale used matched sets? Performance shops must be able to check flow rates tomake sure they are matched?
If one runner is rich and the other is lean, and they tend to stay on thier own side (so to speak) of the cumbustion chamber. would this not effect HP? I think they refer to the way the flame travels across the top of the piston as the flame front. Spark plug in the center suposedably, starts the explosion in the center of the cumbustion chamber and travels evenly across the top of the piston for maximum eficensy (sp?). Now if one side is lean and the other rich, would this not rob you of HP? After all most racer index spark plugs for a efficent burn.
Did't the Rapter run two carbs? I am pretty sure they ran two differant size main jets. Did they run two differant size carbs? What was Yam. reason for it if they did?
Would it be better to add the fuel to the air charge before the split?
Maybe forcing the air flow to one side may cause a swirl effect in the chamber, Making a more perferable burn?
Do the new Cannondale injectors come in a set of two? What about the Harley's?
I got more swilling around in my head but this is all I can handle in one sitting
