Dave,

Very fine data presentation. Well done.
I will be studying this along with other data.
5 minute opinion is this is a most advanageous intake.

I revisited your Page-1 picture that reveals the Tomahawwk flange interface to heads. My TorkerIs and Offyl Dual-Quads show paper-thin aluminum along the lower port seal.
Thus a sealing problem for me tall ports. SCE gaskets help yet sealing reliability still an issue.
Tomahawk having alot of sealing lip left all around could have a key street advantage (for me) for that issue alone. HIS
