PORT VOLUME THE BIG MYTH 101 * TECH VIDEO *
If he builds on them videos then i will take back my WJ comments.
I just felt like it was an advertisement.
It seemed to me it was more like a PSA. He is tired of taking phone calls from guys wanting to buy a head based on port volume and/or flow numbers. That’s really what the first video was about, and the other two followed up on the first and added a couple of things.
Kinda like buying a carb. Buying it based on CFM numbers is a bad way to go. Helping a guy now with a 318 and he is bound and determined to run a 750 on it. I want him to buy a BLP BX4 650 or at least a QF Brawler 650.
The design of these main bodies flow more air than what the 1980’s and 1990’s Holley stuff did. He is so married to CFM rather than venturi and throttle blade size he just can’t think it through.
I sent him a link to those videos so he can watch them.
BTW, WJ said last January he hasn’t used a flow bench in 20 some years. He said that during the Performance Engine...awe crap...I can’t think of what they called it. But he said he hasn’t used one in that long.
I’ll say it again...it’s about shape, Shape and SHAPE. Which is what Matt was saying.
