There was subbing at the forum, for the word had passed around
That the intake from Velox was on the way,
It was going to release 40 horses and a thousand foot pound,
So all the forum peoples had gathered to have their say.

All the tried and noted posters from threads near and far
Had mustered at ft86club overnight,
For the drivers love hard driving where the wild roads are,
And the intakes suck gigantic volumes with delight.



With apologies to A.B. Paterson.

Those are the three sizes we will be testing on the intake manifold for R&D.

If I were you, I would contemplating including the capability of swapping out velocity stack heights... Just in case people want to tune it for different uses.

What would be truly awesome would be for motorised stacks that altered length with rpm. Cost prohibitive but

It's all there and in place for this to happen and that is currently the plan, to offer different stack heights. But I personally feel that we are going to end up finding a specific set of bellhorns that work best in nearly all circumstances. Just a gut feeling, but that's speculation .

Your wallet doesn't beg.
It throws itself wide open and screams, "take me!" to any good looking new piece of hardware.
