So I google'd some formulae, (plural?) and came up with some interesting numbers...
218 c.i. = roughly 215 cfm req'd at around no more than 4000 rpm. This thing ain't a screamer..
Est HP? Meh.. Straight six flathead? 100. And that's being generous. Probly more like 80.
**Edit** wikipedia says the 46-49 I-6's had a rated 95 hp. Wheeeeee.... so it's actually around a 29lb/hr...
Formula for injector sizing: HP x .50 / # of injectors x .80
sooo.... 100 x .50 / 1 injector x .80 = 50 / 1.6 = 31.25 lb/hr injector if I run just one.
In a confined space, that might be just as well.
Thoughts?
Would you put one on a tubular piece above the original intake? Or two, opposing each other? Don't really think three smaller ones in each branch of the lower intake would be feasible, as the distribution would be way unequal. (center runners are way shorter, different flow, etc...)
