can you explain to me the venturi effect as it might apply to the following.
suppose i used a ford intake manifold, the one barrel manifold. put a carb on it , but weld a pipe between two steel flanges creating a small tower for the carb to sit on.
i couldn't understand the math in wikipedia for precise calculations, but if i undersized the tower pipe smaller than the carb bore and the plenum bore,
would i create a venturi effect,?
the hope would be to do this:
a. increase vacuum signal
b. speed the air fuel mix into plenum. zoom!
where
c. the air meets a divider sitting on the floor of the plenum. this divider looks like a triangle with concave sides that will sweep all rushing air to the left and right thusly decreasing turbulence and time needed to deliver to valves, the air furl charge, and hopefully holding the fuel in suspension if its moving faster.
if this is true i can reduce heat to the intake manifold.
i can also by lifting the carb reduce the potential for fuel boil.
thx
