The big thing I find with engine related work is that it is all about care and attention. You need to consider the whole system, no point fitting a ported head with a stuffy air filter! Yes there is a lot of skill and experienced invovled, but if you can build a whole car then engine tweaking should be childsplay.

If you haven't come across it yet look for organ pipe or helmholtz tuning for runner lengths - that confused the hell out of me for a while until I got the chance to actually do some tuning myself.

On that note has anyone played with tuning inltake/exhaust tuned lengths?

Cheers

Dave
