Ditto, what he said.

I've had two similar engines on the dyno just hours apart and what worked on one didn't do anything for the other. As you know subtile differences can be important. As PP mentioned in post #2, a four holer going into an open usually works for me.

Sometimes you find power on the pump and in the car it's not faster. My opinon, the best results for intake tuning is done at the track.

Sorry for no data but I'm not sure that it would necessarily mean anything.
