The whole point of your thread was to show the power increase in an "apples to apples" test by your standards by switching intake manifolds. Now how can it not be by using a differant carb for testing and flipping around the scenario with the spacers and still swapping out intakes? Maybe that can be round #3 .

I can easily get the customer back in and remove the E carb and throw a Q-jet on and test it or remove the high rise intake install cast iron pos intake back on and install Q-jet if you are curious what would the results will be for round #3 if that what you're implying, BUT the main thing would be here is the critiques will still cry at this point further again cause the Q-jet isnt built to a one book standards......OR and create further critisim in any nature.

Rest assured that i will post something else further down the road as has been very appreciated by most forum members for my time & testing and we"ll see if history does't repeats itself.

It won't. This would be a real controlled experiment or an "apples to apples" comparison, if you prefer. If you are comparing the relative performace of 2 intakes, the only thing you change are the intakes. The only deviation you might dial in is if you optimized the tune for each setup (jetting for optimal A/F mixture and timing for best HP/TQ).

Sure you may get some comments like "Wow, that motor is pretty low/high on HP or TQ" relative to my on motor, experince, etc., but no one can dispute the gain or loss relative to the baseline if you changed nothing else.

Well without any baseline test with matched componets , to me this is about the hp lost not gained
