What to consider when choosing an intake manifold?

Here are some things to consider when choosing or designing the intake manifold: Consider the length of the intake manifold along with the runner of the cylinder head. The cylinder head intake port is a part of the runner system so the “total” length should be factored into the equation.

Where is the throttle body on an intake manifold?

With the use of port fuel injection or direct port injection has created much flexibility in designs. Most EFI long runner designs have the throttle body at the end of the intake manifold. This location of the throttle body does offer an economical design with benefits of idle and part throttle capability.

Why do intake manifolds have a lower torque curve?

While this design allows for much more air to enter the cylinders, the runners are shorter which allows for higher rpm operation. When using the single plane, you will usually see a dip in the torque curve around 3,500 rpm. This is because at lower rpm, inside the single plane plenum the air is going crazy.

What’s the difference between single and dual plane intake manifolds?

Try to sort out a proper carburetor for a dual plane intake. This being said, with the right combination of parts, even though the dual plane has been labeled as an intake that performs up to 5,500 rpm, it has made power above 6,000 rpm. The “single plane” manifold is also known as a 360-degree intake manifold.
