Understood and agreed, Ron! After trying a Magnum Performance ported 50 mm
(years ago! )and a F&B 50 mm TB last year, I did not see gains that were
cost effective. However, I found recently that a 52 mm Fastman made a
worthwhile improvement, likely due to the increased potential from my ported
heads, not to mention 6000 rpm shifts. :-) Not pushing any particular
brand as they all have their merits.
BTW, if I neglected to mention it before...... congrats on the magazine
exposure for your dyno test at Carlisle (I think it was). Very impressive!!
